Well since I gotta wait till friday for more tools and filler I might as well start on the left side sail panel to roof seam.

Got some stuff done tonight I'm pretty happy with. Sanded the all-metal down on both sides then filled with rage gold and got the right side sanded. Maybe one more coat on the right side and that should be good. Will sand the first coat of rage gold on the left side tomorrow. These are all skim coats, they are not thick at all.

This body work stuff ain't all that bad. OMG did I say that out loud? LMAO

Well finally got the final coat on both sides. Gotta wait a couple hours before sanding cause it is only 65 degrees in my garage. Prolly won't get finished pics up till tomorrow.
Might as well work on the frame connectors while I am waiting for filler to dry fully.

Ok so I couldn't wait 2 hours LOL, I started sanding and it dried faster then I thought it would   Still got a few very minor imperfections but I think the Evercoat 410 glaze-it will take care of those latter.
