Here we are doing more body work...getting most of the body in primer.

Shot on some guide coat...and start sanding again.

Looks like we have some serious work ahead of us to get the rear bumper to fit snug to the body.

Mocked up the FESLER flush mounted windshield and rear window...had to fine tune the openings for consistent gaps.

Don't you know there's a rule about wearing Tillman TIG gloves while MIG welding!?!?!

LOL

Looks better and better all the time!

If people only realized how many hours it takes to make all these old piles of crap look perfect....
