If we were to get into replacing all the panels and redoing everything it would drive the price up even higher. Its funny how no mater how you replace something its not right in some poeples eyes.
DOOM might want to step in here and help explain why shops do what they do. you guys are only seeing pics and not what is really there so its hard for a lot of you to get it. Sometimes its better to change out the parts but if you can save a panel and keep a car more original that is the way to go.

i fully agree with you chris... its just seem replacing full panels have become the norm or the "right" way to do it:rolleyes:
sure if the panels are unsaveable yes replace but if the rust is pretty minimal (like this car) i feel its MUCH better to fix the original panels.
as far as the car being listed as a rust free car... i positive tyler had no intent to decive you he just never got into that car as deep as you guys did so never noticed it im sure... i was around that car quite a bit and it did look and feel to be rust free.
i have a vinyl top on my 70 and im deathly affraid to see what it looks like underneath! lol |
