Default Continued Body Work

I do hope you guys are finding this somewhat interesting. I could see how for some, this could get boring fast. Body work is just something I was taught by my dad to not rush and do right. Every car i seem to work on i continue to learn more and get just a bit better.

The rocker in the first picture shows the continue process of blocking, finding low spots and filling. Dad taught me to use minimal filler. We both somewhat cringe when we see car shows and they mud the full panel and block it.

The door is back the basic, stripe, hammer dolly and in the case of this door acid off any light rust. Much easier to acid the smaller door than the roof. On this car I finally bought a dent puller. Really helps keep the filler down to as minimal as possible and with some panels you just cant get to the back side. The triangle in the bottom right of the door is just me cutting out some rust and repairing. I believe this is pretty common for 68/69 doors because of how tight the door frame is to the skin.
