Re: 1940 Packard 120 Convertible Restoration

Got most of the lead work done, ran out of lead sticks before I was able to finish the last rear quarter/trunk panel seam.

I melted out the last two spots I had left on for reference and blasted the areas to clean out the rust that was underneath. The top pic shows just how far the edge was pounded in from the factory.






Filled in the driver side quarter seam. I'll have to remove the bracing before I can file it smooth.




Door jambs filled and smoothed.




Shot the body with a couple coats of PPG DP74LF epoxy. I'll get it back on the frame next and start welding in the new panels.
