I will point out that there is no bondo on this chassis to make it straight or to have the panels line up and have correct gaps. Everything has been metal finished. That is one of the things one likes to see on restorations. Bondo is not bad, as long as it is used correctly. However when panels are covered in it and a car is sculpted, that is not a good thing. That is one of the reasons when someone does a PPI (pre-purchase inspection) they will bring a small magnet or paint meter to check and see if the car has been correctly repaired/painted if it is not original paint. Here is the replacement passenger side rear quarter panel stripped and metal finished before it is installed.
