your opinions on damage please

Hi - I am looking at buying this cab, but know nothing about body work and its potential cost.

The picture shows the crease / dent above the rear drivers side light.

Your comments / observations / recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Tough to tell from the tiny pic but if what I see is the extent of your damage. It's not that bad of a fix. It's mostly hollow behind that section. It looks as though the hit may have gotten the light housing also so that will be a bit more work. I am just a DIY guy, hopefully 962 will step in with his expert opinion. He will steer you straight.

Where is the car located?

yep the photo is just to small ! i would need to see the tail light pocket having the light out would be best for that . i would also need to see the QTR to engine lid gap and the QTR to the top of the bumper gap around were the damage is .

rmcda1,

In the event you need to replace the light bucket I have one you can have inexpensively. It is a cut off from a set of SC flares.
