Pull the fender & remove all that trash. Spend some cash & have a REAL old school pick & file guy bring it back to life. A THIN layer of plastic is kinda OK but what they did with yours is a bit much .... in my opinion.

Well, I brought the '34 down to my body guy and we spent a great deal of time going over it, We found one or two areas with fiberglass fill, but the vast majority of the car looks okay. I asked him about the 1/4 of mud, which looks that way in the pictures, and he measured it for me. It is actually a very thin amount, he said it looked like between 1/16 & 1/8". Obviously, I took the pics when I was waiting on the side of the road for a spare to be dropped off and it looked much worst to me... now, in the light of day and with my body guy there, it wasn't as much "mud" as we thought! Looking again at the pics, part of the issue is shadow under the "flap" and what looks to be multiple coats of paint on top of it... Insurance adjuster comes Tuesday, work should start on Thursday...
