bsneon98 Posted February 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I also did some work on my door panels, used them as a test subject to get used to mixing duraglass. Much better than the 3m short strand filler so far. Also much creamier so it really gets in the nooks and crannies. I drilled a ton of holes to make sure it would bite into the plastic and it didnt cross my mind that it would bite this well lol Nothing major, just something funny id share with you guys.

bsneon98 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 Some small updates, most of the major metal work is done, have some small patch panels to make for my inner door skins still. Bye bye cancer! started to prep the bumpers, need to get some SEM surfacer and adhesion promoter for other pieces too New rocker tacked in place The back bumper cover just didnt want to come off. Theres a nasty rust spot on the drivers side (opposite for common rust spot on this car) that will need cut out and replaced. Reinforcement and paint back there looks good still! Rocker panel in place Now I know these arent the prettiest welds, and since this is my first time doing body metal work, I think its coming out just fine lolOn top of that I dont have our good 220 50 amp welder out here, just a little 110 gas welder . Cant get 220V service from a mobile home lol Then cleaned them up getting ready for body filler! Stupid photobucket wont let me rotate this picture for whatever reason 1 Quote Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/152954-1998-plymouth-neon-updates/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
