[quote]Nice work, looks great!!As long as you got good deep scratches under the body filler and the filler is not on super thick then its not going to fall off, it should be fine. But yes next time take the areas that will be filled to bare metal, or glaze with putty.
Seems like the puller that you got worked real well for you![/quote]
Thanks,I did get some deep scratches I used 40 grit sand paper and tried not to get the filler on too thick.The puller did work out great with plenty of pulling power,I would say its worth the money,now I just need to invest in some Mo-clamps it came with some chinese ones but there kinda cheapie.This is where I got it from http://www.autobodytoolmart.com/10-ton-body-straightener-kits-p-10478.aspx I have the 4100 model.
