Default Re: Body panel repair

Local guy restored a Thunderbolt that was in a HOT fire. Most said it was unrestorable but he did right by it, retaining all the sheetmetal that wasn't absolutely destroyed by the fire. He had trouble getting paint to stick to some of the heat-affected sheetmetal and had to use some aircraft quality primer to stick to it and provide a base. Its still holding up well last I heard.
