Yeah that kind of looks like a nightmare Rick. I need to see pics of the expandable foam though [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img]. I can't even think of any words for that, just shaking my head.

Here you go Tom. I am not trying to talk bad about the owner or this car or even the car itself and seldom do I ever talk down another shop but this car is rediculous regarding how the shop built it. When ever someone questions our restoration costs it is cars like this one I can use as an example of getting what you pay for. Now the car is in my shop getting a complete makeover so it will actually cost him more than had he brought it here in the first place.

Notice the tape on the frame rail so the foam stayed within the frame. Also notice the rear frame mount hole on the bottom side next to the gas tank where the foam IS coming out.

Reminds me of the unrepaired rust hole in the bottom of the rear wheelhouse in my Firebird. The guy who did the body work years ago filled the hole with that foam and spray bombed it black. Where did you say that shop was? Maybe they worked on my car, too!
