Hi everyone
Been a while since I posted or checked in here got busy with life in general. I'm back in the game so to speak with my 9th Corvette and hopfully my last frame off restoration. Yea right.
Well I have a 65 vert project that came to me somewhat complete minus the engine and trans that started out it's life as a base engine, GG on Green car. My new direction with this is to do this one my way and not head down the numbers matching road that I did with my last one. I'm about to pull the trigger on the body prep and hopefully have it painted by the New Year with any luck.
I'm getting advice from different direction as to the preping of body seams; some say grind out the old filler and refill with panel adhesive, some say grind out and use fiberglass matt to fill while others say leave it alone.
Now my thoughts on this subject is if it's not broke don't fix it. Other that a couple small areas where pervious repair was performed my bonding seams are tight and smooth as the day it left GM. What are your thoughts on this?
Dennis
