1. Bondo is not an appropriate substitute for welding.
2. OTOH, the lack of welds made it easy to take apart the shoddy repairs, so thanks for that.
3. Apparently, people have widely varying definitions of "ready for paint."
4. When you go to spray primer, for God's sake, remove all the trim first. It was a massive PITA to have to remove all that overspray from otherwise good stainless.
5. Also, good idea to mask off the inside of the car before you spray primer, too. Not that much of it was worth saving, but it's just the whole idea.
