On sunday I worked for better part of the day on patching holes and fixing rust spots. All and all it is coming along pretty good. Man I am having so much fun doing this... What a great experience

Looking great. The only way to learn auto body is to dive right in. The patches are looking good. I'm glad the tub turned out as well as it did. When you said you were having it blasted I got worried. I've seen some cars with lots of holes that suddenly appear after that. What are you going to run for taillights now?

Ya know. You would think I would be better at it then beings That I have been in the industry for the last 17 years.. But I am a painter not much for a body man but have watched it long enough I have the basic's.

I am going to run the round ones instead of the ones that I had in there..

DOH, should have known, those patches looked too good. Nice job for sure. Are you going to cut the 4" holes or buy the Lite Dots? I have a set of new Lite Dots that I can make a good deal on.

I was going to cut 4" holes. But I have never heard of the lite dots. What are those I may consider them. I haven't bought anything yet.

Kind of pricey but a very nice setup and includes the reverse lights. They are available from many outlets. Here's an ad form Quadrec.

Not bad. How much do you need to have out of them?

 

[Bart]

I'm into them over $200 with shipping. I'd prolly let them go for around $160. They are brand new in the box.
