Two More Months Wasted ..............
.... we sent the Thames to a new, highly recommended shop in Trinity to have some small sheet metal items cleaned up ............ that was mid November .............. having heard nothing by the first of February, I had Brooks go back and check on the progress ............. this was all that had been accomplished in two plus months



............. the explanation given was that he couldn't figure out exactly how to make the repairs
.............. obviously this guy didn't have a clue
So the car is back in Asheboro at the Martin Brothers shop ............ the decision having been made to correct these types of small blemishes with fiberglass and body filler putty ........... not what any of us wanted but we have to get on with it and make some serious progress ............ the pictures below show the start of the fiberglass and putty work being done ........... Brooks won't let any mechanical sanders hit that old body ......... the "Grunt Work", as he puts it, is all being done by hand ............ hopefully we're finally on our way

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
