You got that back together pretty quick. How did all the panel line up?

Took some bending and a lot of welding but pretty good. Not perfect but good enough. Rear tail pan and matching up with the trunk lines was the hardest part. Used a ton of clamps and self tapping screws to help. Definitely not great but as my neighbor said, as long as it looks good at 50 50, it's good to go. 50 feet at 50 mph. Lol

1st round of primer done.

In 4 days or so I can apply guide coat to see any low spots to add more filler. Then sand and apply 2 more coats of epoxy.

Then 4 days after that I will sand and apply 2 coats of urethane primer and primer sealer.

About a week after that, paint!

Then a week after that, wet sand and buff/polish.

Wow. That’s a lot to paint. I would try to skip/rush all of that.
