My name is Cynthia and I'm on my boyfriend Tommy's phone as he has asked me to do this for him he is legally blind with very limited almost no eye sight however I have recently gotten him a 66 barracuda that oh boy is a complete project it will probably take him a life time or not either way you are without a doubt the only one that he has been able to understand and I as well as him wanna say thank you for your videos we haven't started it yet as we are watching these back to back so that he gets this right you made a huge impact on him on KZbin and it brings tears of joy to see this with him thank you for touching so many lives most importantly making an impact on my guy being able to have the drive to wanna do what Tommy wants with this barracuda is because of your videos God bless

Pete I never usually leave messages. But I have to say you are by far the best online teacher. I’ve have been restoring a 1971 Vw karmann ghia. And I love watching your shows from start to finish on doing it right, l love you candid approach and consciousness approach. I have passed on on many of your techniques to friends and my small face book page on my own restoration. I am blessed to have found your videos. Because without you I would never have had had the balls to go a full restoration on the ghia. Thank you Pete for taking the time and effort to making these many videos. I know it takes a lot of work. Michael

If u want to remove the low and hi spots in the surface of the body filler to make it flat and straight, specially if you are making the character line of the body, u must use a hard block. Flexible block is not the right choice. Flexible block is good in shaping concave areas. Hard block has even surface cutting compared to the flexi block that when u put pressure in it, it bends. And there's a tendency that you are cutting more in the area where u put a lot of pressure than the rest of the flexiblock that's going to turn to low spots again.

To Pete, I thought you take you dent down with 80 to bare medal lay your filler, flatten with 36, then 80, then move to 180. Can you maybe make a video that does step per step on grits the whole process. From dent, to prime, to seal, to paint all the grits you need.

Good to watch this. Now I am thinking of taking on a 96 riviera, though it will never be worth it in dollars. That was the last car of the career of the guy who designed the 68 GTO. It has an aluminum hood to reduce the weight. Nice ride.

Im in Australia, and right now Im working on my '68 Camaro SS coupe that I bought a few weeks ago. Pretty good body for its age, had rust behind back wheels, thats now cut out ans sections mig welded back in, one rear 1/4 panel was pushed in too along the mid bodyline and lower, Beat most of it out then bondo the whole panel. 5 coast 2K primer filler and blocked that with 120 dry, ready to re prime and reblock. Bonnet(hood) I had glass bead blasted and sandable 2K primered it was a new reverse cowl panel that had lot of surface rust from the elements.

Thanks for doing what you do. I've been working on my 99 dodge 3500. Yes painting it black and many are shocked at how well it's turning out. Especially since I've never done this before. I used black for my guide coat and found I'm much farther along than I thought I was.Thanks for the lessons

Right after it was primed, I only saw one very minor "bondo bulge" right in the middle of the panel, between the back wheel opening and tail light area, just above mid panel height - in the same place where Pete added some extra filler and blocked it out with the little block "staying only on the filled area". Considering the gray rainbow he had to deal with first, in order to even get into primer and not have those layers show through, this method was the only real way to remedy that situation before going any further. Anyway, long block sanding with a fine grade paper on the finished primer coat before painting definitely would've slicked out any remaining slight ripples for a truly flawless panel. This is a man who knows exactly what he's doing at every point in the game because he learned the hard way, which is a good teacher.... only if you're a quick learner. Doing it right means getting your mind ready to accept the rewards and the consequences of every action made between your eyes and hands. In the real world cause and effect still rules the day and either makes you a paycheck or a cardboard sign for the Walmart parking lot. The only substitute for hard work is smart work! Very hard for a novice to match up and level out what Pete was dealing with here, but the same techniques he used to show the proper fix can be applied by any student to any panel job where filler is needed. Thanks again Pete!

I just finished the door on my 57 chevy with this technique, was a small dent but it came out great IMO. I did notice that I needed to overlap and cover the entire area of the dent with filler to blend it correctly to the rest of the door. Good stuff Pete!
