Re: Chipping panel repair?
:coolcruise: Above I said how to patch a crack from the back. When the back is done the crack should be aligned. First grind away the paint over the crack about 1" either side of the crack. Grove out the crack with a burr. Next drill 1/8" holes on either sides of the crack, grove across t...

Re: Chipping panel repair?

Mix 1/4 oz. resin with 5 drops of hardener. I mix in small 6 oz plastic cups with a Popsicle stick. Put the resin ov...

Re: Chipping panel repair?
You can always heat gun melt some mesh in from behind the cracks to hold them in place. I build in holes and missing pieces in plastic with super glue a lot of the time. I heard there's a product like plastic dip and you use aluminium vent tape to form new or resin comes in mini containers or I can...

Re: Chipping panel repair?
Rrr if I sand it might as well repaint the whole front end. No sense in driven naked raw.I'll probably change paint after going to dmv. Bad enough they want me to drive it there because its been off the roaster since 96.

Re: Old vehicle fetish getting worse?
Greetings: Man, that's hard to follow. But if you dig 2-strokes you might like Early SAAB cars. Apparently they could be bump-started by putting it in 2nd gear while rolling backwards. The engine would run because there wasn't much timing advance, if any. With that done, you could use 1st through 4...
