Well that is my car. I guess the block of wood and sledgehammer trick worked!! I could not be happier with the quality of Prodigy's work. AND Frank delivered the car on time as promised.

Pressure treated Guardrail shims work the best! And I have found a 10LB sledge is best, 12lb is too heavy!

I still love it when the whole car jumps, LOL!


Poor Matt, the bodyman in the video has never seen this done but was at wits end trying to make it fit before he came to me for "the assist". He was really worried, I am not sure if it was about damage to the fender, or watching a sledge come at him, ROFLMAO!

Don't worry Matt, you have workers comp!
