So do you have any thoughts on the cause of the huge dent in your trucklet's hood?
I buy paint from the coating store it's cheap and seems to last.. save alot buying from there for completes..

The most important part of pdr is a light so you can see the bottom of the dent might be better of hiring someone so you dont mess it up.

The one my PDR guy told me too. I saw him yesterday at his shop . It goes in next month.
We also found some rusty spots in the rocker panels, under the running boards.

You lost me. Are you doing the PDR or the guy in the shop who does body work ?

By the way there is a really nice set of tan leather seats in one of the cars i found in the yard, Toledo area if anyone is looking, $85.00 for front and rear. I may grab them just to have on hand.


If I am ever in the Toledo area I would certainly be interested in the seats.:)
