Basic Bodywork

The aftermarket parts leave a lot to be desired in terms of accuracy. OEM metal is always preferred but different customers have different expectations. We do try to correct some of the obvious differences in the pieces. In this case, the small indentation near the fuel filler door. The particular year did not have that indentation so we removed it.


We are not a big fan of body filler so this and other small repairs will be done using good old fashioned welding and leading.

Leading

Filler door before. Filler door after. Left Front Firewall before.
After leading repair. Under the hood before. Under the hood after.
The body is back to metal. Small areas of pitting are filled. The hood has a bunch of small dings.
