  • What I do...

    Just some pics of a current job at my work, '13 Taurus SHO. Hard hit, gets a new door and quarter panel replaced.







    Can't wait to finally build a festiva and do bodywork on one! I'm thinking on my blue GL I will replace the drivers quarter panel with the one from my parts car. Be faster than straightening it, plus a better finished product.

      Nope, Insurance claim. I work at a bodyshop in a small town, not a dealership or anything.

                    congrats Fred it really looks good, cant wait to see what you do with your Festiva.
                    An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                        I bet it's pretty satisfying to finish it and say "I did that!"
