Details: |
The body and chassis on the car was in exceptional condition, with no rust and no rot anywhere to be found. It had a couple of small dents and dings that were pulled and picked to perfection, with the use zero bondo. Take your magnet to any part on the body or chassis on this car. Again these were very small dents and you will see how straight the body is in the pictures. All the body metal and pans are completely original to the car except for the rear lower exterior tail pan (between the two fenders in rear, underneath the rear engine lid) which was bent and easier to replace than try to restore. The pans were phenomenally clean and needed no repair. The original undercoat on the pans was left intact, cleaned deliberately and repainted over with a similar type of undercoat color material. The original undercoating under the fenders was completely stripped to the metal while the body pieces were removed, showing all the original paint underneath. During the restoration the undersides of the fenders were repainted but not undercoated. We thought this would look better if someone wants to show the car. All the original welds can be seen in the rear and front body areas.
