Ok now onto body work....

So i had a dent in the roof that was causing "oil canning" but in reverse sort of.... the oil canning would stay down, not up. So i used some heat form a yellow can of propane gas and water rag to heat and cool the metal to get rid of the oil canning, which worked rather well. then i used a Harbor Freight stud welder for pulling dents and got most of the dent out, not all but good enough for me and then some thin bondo... i will sand that down add more if needed and then final with glase.

In the damn middle and rear of the roof are two holes, not sure what for, but they are there... so I will try to correct as much of the dent as possible then weld up the holes. So made why people do this crap..

I am not a body man by any stretch, but I try to get it good enough... if that makes sense. .. Mote pics to come....

By the way, any and i mean ANY suggestions on body work i am all up for!! LOL
