A 1974 Duster - My 2nd one, 41 years later!
Thanks Brock, I am doing the best I can.
I had to go back and re do the fitment of the welded in 1/4 panel. I just wasn't happy with the way it was looking and the fit. Now....I finally have the transition from Goodmark 1/4 panel to the passenger door to my liking. It took a lot of work, but I like it now. This goes back to post #56 & #57 where DusterDaddy responded: "I had a bunch of guys tell me not to take out that door seam or remove the above the body line", he was absolutely 100% correct. If I was changing a 1/4 panel again I would definitely preserve the door gap and cut an 1" behind it, this will save a lot of trouble when you go to blending back in the panel and door!!! Anyways, I am moving on. I'll spray epoxy over this before shooting the whole car in 2K Primer. Sprayed the trunk lid outside in 2K yesterday (4 coats) and blocked it. Ready for sealer now.
