well i bought this car, thinking it was the best for me. Turns out, came with a lot of problems..
Bondo, i hate it, it hides the bad stuff, which is good for the looks of the car, but common. an inch of it is ridiculous... So when i saw the car online, i needed to have it, when i saw it in person i tought i needed to have it.. When I got home, rude awakening... So many things i have going, keeps my RA24 project to the side... lol some carnage pics... so much bondo removed, revealed rust... grinder and few regrets later... after a few videos, and trial and error... all done by hand with basic tools, lol. Did not take pics of the bending process. but hey not bad for a begginer. Of course bondo will be used, but not to the 1 inch thickness... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL

The baby has killed all car activites for me for the forseeable future.... Haha! It's so true... I don't see myself getting anything fun or starting anything fun for 3-4+ years... Edit: Then I'll be f'd again, because we'll probably have another... Damn our fertility! This post has been edited by narly_charley: Nov 16, 2017 - 9:22 AM -------------------- 2000 GT-S 6 SPD...
