1966 Dodge Dart
Well today is April 9th. Its been all but a month since my last post. I dont have much to report. I did weld the holes shut on the drivers rear quarter. Then I welded the rocker panel seam shut on the drivers side as well.
Threw some filler in to start the body work and started sanding. I hate sanding but I think I mentioned that a few other times in this thread. I was laying on the creeper with dust dropping on my face and I came to a decision! Im going to try to find someone to finish the rear quarters. Im no body man and I dont enjoy it. I dont really want to spend the money for someone else to do it, but I hate it that much.
I would rather spend time straightening and polishing the trim. I also need to finish the interior and cant move forward on that part until the body is painted. If its me doing the body that could be years from now.
Now what Im going to try is to find someone that will come to the house here because I dont want to take it to someones shop where I cant watch what goes on. Im also going to try to settle on a price and pay the first half as we go then not pay the final total until its completed. That way I dont end up with half the job done. Of course I may not find someone that will agree to that. Guess we will see how it comes out.
I'll keep you updated on my progress.
As always thanks for following
