All of the sheet metal seems to be very wavy. The roof and right quarter look to have a lot of high spots. I'm kinda new to sheet metal work and would like to learn how the waves will be taken out. Looks like a heck of a lot of hammer and dolly work!!! Maybe the pics look worse than it is but, would you consider replacing panels rather than all that metal finish work? Once the metal finish work is done will you re-skim the whole car?

What you are looking at is the panel half stripped.
So it looks like your seeing lots of high spots but, your just seeing were we went threw to the the metal before the whole panel was finished being stripped.
No, we will not need to skim-coat the whole car after the metal work is completed

Camaro Performers magazine is working to get some of the needed parts to Pete for Tony's car. Makes for a good story and we get tech out of it.

If any car needed saving it's Tony's ... lol

It is nice to see how lots of people have come together to help a member out with his misfortune, I wish there was such a group up here in Canada.

OK I see, thanks.. The car looks great all stripped down in bare steel.

I'm looking forward to seeing how you guys will correct any issues with the sheet metal and how and where you will apply body filler.

Awesome work Pete, hope you get a ton of business from this gesture :thumbsup:

Funny you should say that.:_paranoid
Actually, "IF", and that's an if, all goes through and my car sells and I purchase the '69 Camaro SS that I am checking out, Pete and his crew will be doing some work for me as well.:thumbsup:
Keep up the great work Competition Specialties!!!
