nice work there derrik. u think they'd mind if i dropped by?

dbssr1212 02-19-09 06:11 PM

idk don't guess so
theres alottttttttt of filler on the car

got some more done today on the door and all
dont really have time to search for my memory card uploader thing

but yea the part between the cowl and the fender is terrible =/ lots of filler i might go find a junkyard 7 and cut it out and then have mine cut out weld it and grind it off till its smooth then sand it
not sure yet


but im still thinkin of what to do bumper wise.... =/
anyone have any pics of a SA with FB bumpers?

Man that car looks so familiar. Hmmm I wonder where I've seen it before ;)

You got a great deal on that car. If you clean up the body on it its going be a nice ride with the BP in it.

dbssr1212 02-20-09 02:53 PM

yea the only real pain about it beside the rust that was under the passenger side sideskirt will probably be the part beside the cowl
the part that doesn't look like it can be takin off
looks like one of the bodylines was made out of bodyfiller because this dumbass that was put in my group sanded over it but yea hes outta my group now haha but i have to make that bodyline now =/
