    Looks good to me,
    What condition did this one come in with? (Damage wise)

    I was a little surprised to see the garbage on your booth floor.
    I was sure if you spend that much on a booth it would be self cleaning. 😉

    WOW, I totally remember that car from a while ago but forgot all about it, I didn’t really think it would be repaired

    GREAT Job!

    I dont have near the equipment that I would need to do work like that :blink: .

    Do you put it in some sort of jig or frame machine while your welding the new side in? How do you know its square before welding?

    Killer work!

    This was actually a pretty easy fix. whatever the car hit tore the hinge pillar off clean. Really only had a few hours of frame time on it. I only changed 3/4 of the front door opening. fixed the roof. think i had more time in the roof than on the frame machine.
    Now the fun part of puttin it all back together.

    Was this an insurance job or an rebuilder you bought?

    Between this and that house when do you get time for you?
