Problem was they never ground off the welds. So I proceeded to lay "Bondo" on thick in order to smooth out the panels. I'd never seen nor heard about a grinder before

LOL, I love those stories. I got my 48 Chevy pickup when I was 15, didn't even have a drivers license. I started to chop the top a few months later. I did a lot of bondo work on it before I found you you are suppose to dry sand bondo.  I wet sanded it with pretty fine paper too. LOL
