Replicating Factory Spot Weld Appearance

[Nova Jed]

How crazy do you think the judges would be if they saw one door underneath wasn't painted and the other side was? Or paint runs in the door jambs or underside of trunk lid? That's exactly how my Nova was before I painted it. I wish I would have taken pictures because it was a survivor. Like I said it "was" a survivor. I wish now that I would have never painted it. My hat is off to those of you who restore all the little flaws. That has to take a lot of time to duplicate! That has to be tough with a BC/CC paint job.

Overspray is ok, but runs and flaws in the body are not ok. That's the deal, like it or not.

Some of us don't care, we restore like the factory built them, bad gaps, poor fit, orange peel, etc... I dup'd the runs inside the trunk sides for the speckle paint - I had 4-5 judges inside the trunk salivating over points deduction. Lucky for me, Lanny popped the trunk on his original owner, unrestored '70 Nova.... conversation over!
