73 monte carlo build up.

I'd be willing to gamble with hard lines, but I would replace soft brake hoses, calipers, cylinders, shoes/pads, and if you can find a place to do it turn the rotors/drums. I'd rather turn old iron, then deal with new parts.

Hah when i had my hilariously small toyota echo.


Turned out to be cheaper to buy new rotors for that particular car, then what the guy normally charged to turn them.

I think it was more like a large R/C car then a real automobile.

How did you get in my shop?

Yep. Hard as hell to find places to turn these days because it is more cost effective to just replace. Sadly, a lot of the new parts are very good quality. If I'm working on my own stuff, I try to get my known-good pieces turned. Nothing sucks more then shuddering from crappy rotors. It's like riding around on Godzillas personal massager.

Yeah, bleach can't get that mental picture out!

I have not done to much that you can actully see. Right now im working on patching the passenger wheel well. Then i will move over to the driver side. I am starting to use body filler on some of the car. you can see a few spot in the pictures i have.

This week im hoping to get the cab all patched up so i can drop the tank next eek and fix the trunk.

Liquid lead might be a better alternative then bondo in your situation.

It's like reverse 31:1 ratio soldering on computers.

i don't have a torch and i don't like messing with lead.

now why the hell not?

Lead work on anything that didn't have it from the factory doesn't make much sense to me, but I wouldn't worry about working with it. Wear gloves, and don't breath in the fumes. Lead isn't as bad as it is made out to be. Most people who get lead poisoning are stupid kids who eat the colorful potato chips...

Umm I gotta go with the rest of the crowd here, I am not sure where your located but the first time the weather starts changing bondo starts cracking and falling off.
