Right side rear quarter
This week got me started on the right side 1/4 panel. I knew there was going to be a bit of damage, but I didn't realize just how bad.... started to grind out the panel..and I notice filler. Ok so to this point, there's been filler all over the car..but this one surprised me
Tried to take this photo, so the green/white is filler, then pink filler, then gray is filler, finally metal peaking thru...
the bottom rear of the panel will probably need a big patch, I'll have to grind back the old patch panel to see how bad it is...you can see the madness on the floor...
Slowly but surely, the filler/paint is coming off
this is a mid way clean up I tried to get the tool in for a reference but I honestly think there was at least a gallon of filler on just that panel.
So this is the damage done on the panel, it looked like the area just above the center of the wheel well was pushed in about 2 inches. Instead of fixing it...the last owner just sculpted bondo.
Another shot of the filler.
we used a hydraulic press to push out most of the major part of the damage. worked from the outside in, pushes here and there, with a bit of hammer work, and both sides, left and right 1/4 are now where they should be.
Another shot of the fix still needs nail gun work, but the major section is out.
No school for another week due to work stuff, so maybe I'll work on the engine during the week.
