Pictures  about the work on the body of the car

This section shows the largest items for the body work, zoomed and commented. You can see how the car looks after the body work in Photos 3 - After phase 1 section.

That's the place under the driver's door that was badly repaired. I have cut the rusty metal patch, cleaned the place from the rust and applied rust protection. Then I have started to close the hole with the epoxy resine and fiberlass.
