Love this series. It's one of the most accurate depictions of what comes into a shop on any given day

Noted. Start in the middle and work to the ends, which can be more easily adjusted. I really enjoy this series. Thanks!

It helps

Now, you buy Goodmark panels and you get 1980's Taiwan panels. Nice! My, dad rebuilt salvage vehicles, in the 80's. These Goodmark panels, seem to be Taiwan panels, from the 80's. Always, had to work them to death, to get a decent fit.

​@@HotRodGuyGarageI used to think Goodmark was AMD level or higher. Dynacorn, OTOH, seems to be sloppier on there quality control

Interesting to see how you put it all back together. Nice to see Daisy, too.

You are doing a good job on that disaster

I know you have to destroy the repop quarter panel. I would save the metal to use as patches on the body as needed if the thickness is appropriate for reuse.

@HotRodGuyGarage

Ай бұрын

It will definitely be used somewhere as donor metal

Thank you for the update. Also appreciate the hard work you do for that Man.😎❤️

@HotRodGuyGarage

Ай бұрын

I appreciate that

That's a damning indictment of the newer repop stuff when a Taiwan sourced quarter fits almost perfectly. The misstamped body crease lines irked me as well. The worst part of this panel fiasco is 1965-66 Mustangs are everywhere and the quality of these types of parts needs to be better IMHO.

I've had after market inner wheel wells show up not stamped right. All parts are not made the same. Did he have you put in torque boxes in?

@HotRodGuyGarage

Ай бұрын

It's all basically garbage now , no added torque boxes but it will get fully tied frame connectors when done

It's sad there are so many poor-quality parts they're turning out.

It a epidemic across the industry. I've seen more bad poor quality parts in the past 5 years then ever

It would be cool to have a clock in the shot so everyone can see just how time consuming this is.
