Rear end exposure

Got all the damaged rear sheet metal out. Now for cleaning up and fettling of the attaching points. 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Restored the shape on the outer side of the 'point' below the tail light which had been crumpled in. Got it pretty close with hammer and dolly. Inner side of this will be new sheet metal.
Former repair had just sculpted the shape from bondo with no effort to hammer the metal back. 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Filler on the side of the fender will be removed and proper dent repair done as well.
