I have a 65 that has been in a front end collision and the guy who is restoring it just cut the front end off a donor car! He’s 63 and has been doing bugs since he was 18 and he can do anything with these bugs! He’s amazing! He went to the auto parts store and bought 12 gallons of primer and the salesman said your doing another bug right! He said yeah and th salesman said how much work is required to fix the body and he told him that it’s like sanding a basketball there’s no flat surface on it anywhere? 😂
Found this!! This is exactly what my 75 needs. But not sure I want to tackle this as my first body job.. lol body is on the frame and I don’t have the space to remove the body from the frame. Wonder what a shop would charge for this as a roll in car?
Hey Mike I have seen a Ad before that there is car washes in LA that have Hydro Blast stalls - 25 bucks for 5 Minutes ???? they sell a etching spray sorta like you have ...
Nice work sir!
Lots of good information, thanks for the post.
Way more detailed. Awesome.
yea this is a hard repair and you need more detail for sure. I am trying to make more detailed repairs but so many are not straight forward.
Great job! Wow! Thank you for sharing!

Spam is GREAT!!!
Nice video Mike. I have the same task ahead of me. Did you end up using an air chisel to cut thru those welds? Rolling up the metal looks like a pita.
