    Well got this job in over the weekend. Looked at it last summer. Customer bought the car wrecked and had a buddy that owns a shop pull the car and put a quarter on it. Gaps are off cause they didnt get the floor and inner quarter pulled out all the way. Think they forgot to fit any parts before welding. Now he wants it painted and all the gaps corrected :wak told him I will do what I can without cutting things apart. and all the primer on the car is 1k :compsmash

    As it came in

    left some teck screw in and cut the treads off so they wouldnt rip the top :wak . so we took them out and welded it

    You know you’re in for fun when a car has 8 different colors of primer on every panel. :whistle:
