Work Continues...
Work on the rear panel has started. Stripped the rear panel back to bare metal, nothing too surprising, both lower corners were a bit pushed in, but nothing a nail gun couldn't fix. Both corners were pulled, along with a couple low spots on the center portion of the panel.
Driver side, somewhat complete and in primer. Still have to block sand the primer.
I wasn't feeling the emblems on the back of the Cortina, so all the emblem holes were welded up..
I left the two holes on top, I figured I'd have to put a plate somewhere...
Welds ground down flush with the body..
And of course, filler work. I guess it's something that has to be used, As long as I keep it low, all should be good.
I went to cars and coffee before class this past weekend, and took some reference photos of 4 Cortinas. Was pretty amazing to see 4 in one place, was a really cool show, so I may have to try and get up at the crack of dawn again to check out all the other exotics..I was way too focused on the Cortinas. http://www.flickr.com/photos/12867379@N00/sets/72157604084513341/ linky of the reference photos.
