yep,thats why i wanted to see how the 1/4 panel was looking before paint.so far i think theyre doing a good job...im thinking they will test fit the door and remove it to paint it.might look like a real car pretty soon.

The rust repair on my CTS wagon involved replacing the entire roof panel. I took it to a very trusted body shop and street rod constructor but it was still hard to see.

it looks a lot better than it did after the semi driver was through with it...theres that.once they clean all the glass out of it and put it back together it should be quite presentable.all rubber moldings have been removed so its getting a proper paint job.

Ernie70 · 07-22-2022, 01:19 PM
