where the roof rails are, they should be welded in with a strip of metal, otherwise, wacking filler to fill it, it will just crack after a few months
But its looking good

i wasnt refering to the work, but the place it was being done in and the fact that the car was stood on its own wheel....
Didnt seem very professional for a bodyshop, unless she knows the guy and is getting it done cheaper as a favor, then fair doos....

"she" knows this guy, friends dad
has his own bshop but is doin her car as a favor in his own time hence in his garage. As for the wheels she aint bothered bout them as theyre curbed to crap anyways n new wheels r gettin painted as we speak
as she sed when all prep work is done then its goin to the bodyshop for the respray.
iv seen his work n its
his old cav turbo he done himself
