Had a repair job in the shop the last couple weeks. Working it in around getting the new floors welded in the Chevelle.
We did some work on this 33 Chevy almost 15 years ago. The owner started it but realized he would never be able to make it as nice as he wanted it. So we did the finish body work and paint to the body shell, doors, hood and trunk lid. A month or so ago the owner and his son took it out for a ride. The door was not latched all the way and his son somehow hit the handle when reaching to pull it shut. It has suicide doors, so the wind grabbed it and whipped it back into the quarter panel. It didn't do a
ton of damage, but it was bad enough. You can see where the door hit the beading and pushed the quarter in. it also separated the outer door skin from the inner structure and cracked the sheet metal around the hinges.
So got the metal work all straightened out, and got the door fit and working properly again. Moved on to the filler work, and then some polyester primer (basically high build sprayable bondo) then got it all blocked out and ready for final primer.
Then it was on to prep the body and shoot some paint.
And after a quick sanding/polishing this morning, got it all back together.
