Well, I was finally able to pull Mespock's 94 into the shop today, and get the dent pulled on his drivers door. Tomorrow is a busy day finishing the door for paint, and getting the new hood, and fender ready for paint also. While I am at it, the rear 1/4 panel will be blended, and completely re-cleared to make sure there is not chance for a mismatch.


BTW Rich, It is paint code DK, so if you want to go ahead with your original plan, have at it. :D



More pics tomorrow.

It won't be all metal tho..... The door skin was stretched WAY too much to do metal finishing work. It'll have a couple coats of Evercoat "RAGE GOLD* filler before primer. But all in all, there will be VERY little filler in the panel.

Ivory pearl question, if I have a deep chip in the paint, would I have to re-paint all the car just to fix the chip?
 
I bet you are glad now that you didn't part it out.
 
Has someone replaced the front fender already... Looks like a different color?:eek: :eek:

No. I'm no expert, yet, but it can be fixed. Pearls can be blended, it's just harder. It's pretty much a spot fix, then you just blend the paint out.

Daughter had taken my cell phone last night so I couldn't find it when you called.

Plus, with my screen being boggered I could see who called until I read this post.

I left you a message on your cell. Call me back if you get a chance.
 
Update....




Door is done, and ready for paint, and the fender has become a bit more work then I had hoped. The rock gaurd was seperating from the metal, and had allowed some rust to form. SO..... I had to grind it all off, and re prime the lower section of it. the car will be in the booth sunday night, and painted monday morning.

It's looking good and I can't wait to see the finished product.
 
I sure hope JD or GF is bringing the 94 earlier on Friday because I'm going crazy waiting LOL.... So don't play with me boy... LOL... I feel like a kid waiting to open his Christmas Presents... but I can't even shake the box...

This thread is like the Christmas Toy Catalog... I keep going back over what I've seen day in and day out just waiting and hoping!!!!
 
Car is out of the booth, and will be wetsanded and buffed tomorrow. thursday is completion day, as I have to put the door hardware back together, and adjust the hood to line it up with the fenders. Anyway,


Here are the pics.
