    Nice job! I would like to have seen the rust damage under the vinyl where it meets the quarter panel. That must have been a ***** to fix. My mom had a caddy just like that, which she used to flatten my neighbor's mail box (& I mean flatten).

    my thoughts as well, some cars just don't seem right to me in flat colors, Buicks and Caddy's mostly....
     
  4. yeah it was a total ***** to form the new sheet metal and everything the rust was pretty bad on both sides of the vinyl top and in the front pillars of the roof and a little around the windshield were it must have been leaking

    the only problem was I got so busy working on it that I never stoped to take pictures of fixing the rust spots and I never got any real good pictures of the car before it was bagged or anything :(
