CARS FROM MY PAST
BODY WORK
The car was originally painted Adobe Beige by Chevrolet at the factory, since then, it has been light blue. In removing the awful re paint, I discovered that someone has probably taken a walk on the roof, and there was a little surface rust on the rear pillar - driver side, plus a little rust under the rear window, where the channel had hardened, cracked and let water thru.
As you see, the line where the hood takes a sharp angle down, has some work ahead. You really appreciate the tips from the T V guys when you are doing your own body work.
There is more filler than metal I think. I will hunt a better hood.
New rubber gasket for the back glass, and sealed the channel while it was out
