Now it's time for body work. My rear 1/4 panels are in pretty rough shape and I want to get the car looking good for Geopalooza 2009. I am not really good at body work, but started this job anyway even though I don't have factory matching paint.



I got up bright and early and borrowed the shop to do some body work. I wanted to get started on the rocker panels since there are holes starting........



This might seem kind of Redneck, but I covered the holes with duct tape......



And then applied the mud...........



I masked it, and sanded it down..........



Then paint............





Now the rear fenders...........









And the end result is not too bad.............







Here is a distance shot after washing the car............



I then got home and got to work with this stuff........



Spent a total of 9 hours doing bodywork and washing and waxing.......



I'm done............
