Seats refurbished!

I pulled out the seats and foolishly didn't take any "before" shots, but here they are with the new upholstery work. The driver's seat was pretty well trashed and some small woodland creature decided to use the foam to build a nest and as a result the seats have essentially been completely rebuilt.

Patch Panels

The "acne" has been removed and a new panel welded in place. Also, the small bit of steel that was missing from the drivers side behind the top has been replaced and tacked in. A bit more weld repair work is needed but will come shortly.

DAMN BONDO!!

The bondo covering the top of the quarter and what I'm calling the rear deck is hiding some awful corrosion issues. I'm not even sure how to describe this. It's pitting, surface corrosion and i guess the equivalent of metallic acne. more cutting and welding of patch panels to come...

Drivers side quarter skin's gotta go

Pretty thick coat of bondo on both sides. Used Jefferson to gauge the thickness...and that's in a relatively thin spot!

Passenger side primed and waiting for paint

Passenger quarter wraps up

patch panel

The rear deck (another bondo heavy spot) had to be cut away and replaced with a patch panel.
