[@TommyHoyle-m5c]

I like what he's doing here for a couple of reasons. One is that the process he's showing us really does work well when you are trying to do a spot repair while trying to match sub par body work on a rat rod type vehicle when the patina is extra funky and worth saving. I've done the same thing on sections of cars that needed repair in certain areas but were also beautifully worn out and aged throughout the rest of the car. It works. Another reason I appreciate this process is because of paint blending. I don't care how precise the paint mix is, you're not going to be able to to match that unevenly faded existing paint enough to fool the eye without either spending an obscene amount on multiple tries to match it, or blending into the adjacent panels. That panel blending would never look good, because the paint is unevenly faded. But you can keep the blending area small by sticking to the one panel, in this case the door, do your best and stay away from the edges of the panel; they are already naturally blended into the adjacent ones. If you do end up panel blending, it should be a judgement call based on how the door came out. And if the rest of the existing body work eventually falls off, well then you can decide if you want to get into painting a wider area.

[@beadblaster9508]

Maybe in 20 or 30 years that type of Volvo could become more desirable as originally built, but I would rather have your Volvo now than having your Volvo restored to original.

Even a service centre charges $160ph to service a car. What a mate or w car club associate does it for isn't the same as going to a professional custom paint shop and I was referring to striping, body work and paint. One side of chads car needs rust removal so add custom fabrication as well.

@@aaronmycar9166 My point is ,this specific car with very little body needed except the doors . This car to be a nice all around driver could be sitting on the floor is worth approx $ 50 - $80 k depending on a few things ,one being quality of the restore . Buy it at $15 - $20 k, and spending another $25- $30 would be very reasonable and is done all the time . Most I know including myself would do the paint . I am average to good at paint and it would look good but have friends that would do an ace job to bring its value to a decent level . It depends on what was the initial price and WHO bought it . Agree ?

[@aaronmycar9166]

We can agree on the estimate value and the cost for the specific purpose you are talking about. You've added some context like, all round driver. Now imagine you have about 30 cars and you're just going to park it in a shed with the rest of them, unlikely to be driven for more than 30 minutes for the whole time you own it. You're just going to look at it for the amount of time it takes you to walk past it to get to the project you're actually working on. You might just want to patch it so you don't see big patches of paint missing for the 2 second glance. I've got a 1925 dodge. It will never leave my property. Should i spend $25k (or whatever price you want to put on it) or should I patch it and buy another one for $25k to add to the collection that will never leave the property?

love it fast mix carboard no worries , same as i do when needed

Wrap sandpaper on a pencil for the indents ...

[@stevebennett3248]

You could fix and paint the whole door then set it in the cold shed , the paint would cracked like what's on it. I've done it

[@charleswitherbee5549]

Nate and Douglas. Haven’t seen either in a while.

[@SinGin-ri3pz]

All the time wasted on the Volvo fixing rust, and he rushes this automobile masterpiece. I believe he is just making it look more appealing before he flips it.

[@kensimpson7005]

I think you’re doing an excellent job on everything. Don’t listen to the naysayers and that latest car you bought do whatever you want to it Chad it’s yours.

[@andyrice3242]

It's definitely a temporary fix more will chip off in the future but definitely works for now

[@jonnysuperglide]

Another way to do that door would be take it off the car and fix it laying flat on a set of horses with the window down and the trunk the same way that way the car don’t get all nasty with sanding dust just my . you could spray the whole door and trunk perfect you could get matching paint almost to the existing color if took it to a paint shop a small part is all they need to match it up perfect 👍 looking good guys

[@claudeperron8197]

Bet ya,he brings in a special paint man to match!

[@NasirKhan-zw5cc]

That's a real bad way of doing this door repair. The only way to do it is to strip it to bare metal and do a proper job, no short cuts. But, many a time you say that it's time consuming, you not restoring, so I give up.

[@dayslife]

good repair plan Mr Chad, 👍people don't realize that even putting 1000 hours of body paint work on it would still not make it a perfect car

Bugatti will never be finished ......

[@rolfbrunner3016]

Was there a bugatti?It must have been before my birth

[@DennisCuster-v7w]

It's going to look like a road map

[@DanSmith-cb5vj]

If you sell it, the buyer may not want quickly painting. They will just have to strip it anyway, if they want to have it show quailty.

[@gordonhancock6030]

This car deserves a complete ground up frame off restoration. At least remove the door and restore it.

[@alpeach9480]

Does a ground-up restoration need the door to be taken off ? !! Oh dear, LMFAO !!

[@tomsheppard1666]

Yeah, why not completely ruin it? Patching up the most unsightly part (after 90 years) is far more in keeping with a car of this type. It is a Ford, the poor man's car, not a Hispano!

[@Mgreen0104]

You could also use a 2 part primer in a can. Eastwood sells it reasonable. You can also put in refrigerator to preserve the product!

[@elchuco00]

Great decision on not stripping the whole door. I think that would take way too much out of the original car. Super cool car!!
