The ugly

Okay guys, my beautiful purple taco sadly was the victim of my own wrong doing. I turned too wide going left and there was a semi truck turning in the lane right of me and as stated my turn was too wide and the lug nuts absolutely shredded the side of the truck. As you can tell I have a pretty sketchy bondo job done to it. This was my first time even thinking of doing body work myself and I was careless. I have since then realized the value this truck has and so I am trying to fund a body job by some pros. If any of you guys have suggestions or ideas of stuff to do just comment, I’m all ears.

 

- Dent puller
- More bondo
- Finishing body paste
- Belt and orbital sander
- Primer, color match and clear coat
- Harbor Freight cheapo spray gun

It looks like you can run your mask right along that first fold all the way across the door and do an invisible feather, take your time and will save you buku bucks. Or pay someone, either way.

It comes down to what you can live with.

In these days a Body Shop to repair and paint unless you find someone who works on the side.

A easy $2000.00 plus They make much more money with new Vehicle insurance collision jobs.

Good Luck!

 

Make sure you atleast use ospho before you prime to clean and neutralize any rust
