Alejandro is taking the car to metal... on that passenger door, when I got the car, it looked pretty bad. I thought it had to do with some bondo used to fix a dent or something. Glad to see that it was all due to the many coats of paint or red filler used when prior work was done in the car.

He tells me that the coat he puts on is just to avoid the panels to get surface rust while he works.

You see where he marked with a black marker the areas he needs to cut and fix. He also found a crack on the door, where the frame enters the door. So another thing he will fix.

Fitment of the Duck Tail looks good so far. There is some build he needs to do to make it match at the top (not sure if you guys can notice the tail sitting just a tad lower than the car line), but overall I am pleased to see that it will not take a lot of work to make it right.

A few more photos from yesterday:
