Nice work Jason, in the end looks like he will finally be happy

I just started priming parts, the doors and trunk lid are completed. I’m happy with the trunk area. A lot of work had to go into it, just to get it straightened out. The quarters were just a little too low and I had to build up the top of the quarters to get the panel alignment to look presentable. I like showing these shots as this is what needs to be done to aftermarket sheet metal sometimes. That’s an aftermarket trunk lid and the dam thing had dents and low spots. I think a lot of it has to do with the sheet metal is a lot thinner than the original sheet metal. A lot of time was spent blocking the back half out; I think it will pay off in the long run. The owner is very happy with my progress. I’ve got more done in 3 months than the previous body guy did in 3 years. My goal is to have the body in epoxy and high build in the next week or so. I will then proceed onto the frame, sandblast prime, and paint and hopefully get the body back onto the frame by the end of the summer.
