    Hi everyone, we are a restoration shop in Elk Grove Village IL and we have a 1937 Packard for some metal work. This car came from another shop that did a not so great job on the repair. We went ahead and made the front corner from scratch. Here are a few photos of before and after.

    I think the guys at Dietrich coach builders would approve. Phenomenal work.

    I hate seeing patch panels with overlaps. Always a sign of an amateur. Your work looks nice. Show us a pic of the inside, that's where the money is.

    I went to school with a guy whose dad was a famous Pacakard collector in Queens NY. One day he drove to school (in 1974) with a concourse quality '37 coupe.
