Hey man.. if you're going back to metal I suggest fixing the cancer, do an etch primer, a good primer, and a white sealer--then your base-clear...

I'm cheating!! Just had a chat with the body shop doing the paint for me. He says if I do all the welding (and there was loads!) and get the filler work close to shape, he'll finish it off!! Result. Hoping to have some before and after pictures around the end of the month  ;)

Good news there bitzer!

Wish I was close enough to spray. I am taking it back down to metal, patch panels for the cancer (Chris will be the supplier for those) and then going from there with all the help from you guys.
