Fairlane RestoMod: Episode 5 - Rust repair

Apologies for the camera pointing at my back so much. When I was grinding on the railroad track, the sparks pretty much melted the front lens on my camera. I had to move it back to prevent any more damage.
This was a challenge for sure. If this part could have been sourced from AMD, I most certainly would have gone that route. The only option was to buy two entire quarter panels and that just wasn't gonna happen. This was VERY outside of my comfort level, but I think it will be fine.
My intention was to make this metal finished, but the gaps were ultimately too tight and it tin canned a bit. Nothing some filler & high build primer can't fix.
I also did the other side, but due to timing, I did not film that. I am now racing against the clock to beat the cold weather for the undercoating.
...also, the Autotwirler Pro may be the best thing ever!

It has been a long, long winter, but finally back at it!

[@eythanholladay]

Yeah - It has been a challenging last year or so, but I am ready for undercoat when the weather warms up.
