What Did You Do To Your Chevelle Today

[chevymaher]

Weather is to bad to put the trans I working on. So today and tomorrow I get to work on her.
I am so happy right now. I pulled off a true piece of artwork.

The guy i bought these 2 cars from apparently could not load a car to save his life. Both the SS and this car had a dent in the quarter behind the door in front of the wheel well where he loaded them when he got them. Exact same place. Not a bad dent just a scrape really but enough to warp it and be a pain in the rump. Right where 4-5 complex curves meet.

I had it fixed and sprayed it with water, used a spotlight on it and couldn't see it in the shine. But running my hand over it I just didn't like the way it felt. inch wide X 4 inch area. It felt like it warped the metal back from it and there was high spots in what looked like perfect metal. Have I mentioned i am wave chasing. Anyway I was getting 4 spots I didnt like far from the repair area, but i knew it caused it. I skim coated the mess and sanded it back down.

I know somebody out there knows how i feel right now. I could do a flip. It is fixed.

Couple more places and I ready to clean the garage. Start taping and high build time. It just seems like forever I been doing this. But I see the light at the end of the tunnel now.
