Ford Landau how she came to us. Paint job looks ok, BUT .................

But what's really been put under that great paint job

What we found: piles of bog and rust that wasnt repaired properly or even repaired at all

This was done by a professional panel beater....NASTY

Filler (bog) was put over the rust ...this is digusting and very unprofessional

Rust fixed properly with metal .....NOT just filled with bog

What we found under piles of (bog) filler.

We removed the rust and repaired it with metal

Small rust hole was filled with bog

After we repaired it properly

The bog was so bad we had to remove that bit of panel

We cut out the damaged bit

And replace it with a new bit of metal

And after we got to her, what a difference....she came up looking like new

Remember the before.......what a difference when its done right

Thousands of $$$ was spent at a panel beaters to have his pride and joy restored and this is what he got.

When you have your pride & joy restored, check up on the panel beater every now and then and see what he's really doing to your prized possession.

Engine, wiring, everything removed and engine bay repaired

Engine bay After

We put the motor back in and got her running

One of the doors

And how much filler (bog) we scapped out of it

Once bog was removed, bottom section of door was found to be too damaged to repair

So bottom section was removed

And replaced with a brand new section of panel

Before

After.....What a little bit of TLC and paint can do

Shocking amounts of bog was put into this panel....

By the time we scrapped the bog out this panel it was so damaged we had to cut off the bottom section and replaced it with a new bit

We ordered a new bottom bid of panel from Ford and BUT welded it on . We do not overlap, we edge to edge

Filled with metal, NOT Bog

You can go else where and pay for LOTS & Lots of bog , as this poor gemtleman did .....Or

Or bring her to us.... A Classic Car Restorer, and have it done right the first time.
