How To Align Body Panels Up On A Car - Door Hood Fender Alignment & Adjustment For Perfect Gaps

[@45BradB]

Pro tip: if your doors are on and good gap BEFORE you take them off, drill a small hole through the hinge into the jamb and one through the hinge into the door. Tag that drill bit and keep it safe. When you go to put the doors back, grab that drill bit and use it to line up the holes you made. They will be back in exactly the same place. Save you a bunch of time and headaches

[@SprayWayCustoms]

Good tip! Appreciate it

Hey Sprayway! Awesome video. One thing I've learned to do, fooling with these old cars (and motorcycles, and ATV's, and lawnmowers) is where there are small rusted parts, I put them in a shallow plastic pan, put EvapoRust in it just enough to submerge them, and let it sit overnight. Next morning, rinse them off good, then buff up with a magic eraser, or Scotch Bright, and they nearly always come out pristine. Perfect for priming and painting. BTW, Hello fro Huntsville!

[@SprayWayCustoms]

Thanks a lot for the info

[@johnd281]

Quick question I just bought one and I'm not sure how many you have done but I see àlot that have the short seats and the console do you know what the seats came out of I'm going n Chattanooga so it's a pick a part if they have the car but if not I definitely will order the front seats I'm almost 6"2 and having the og seats doesn't work for me
