Hello listers,

I decided to tackle some of the body work on the spitfire this weekend. I have a couple small holes in the lip of the wheel wells on the front and rear fenders. So I started sanding down the area around the front driver's fender and as I was sanding found that there was more body filler under the paint. After sanding down almost the whole front quarter panel, i found that the corner is in pretty bad shape. Some of the filler was put on over rust as well. So I am trying to get down to the bottom of all of the filler to check for cracks and to make sure that there is no more rust anywhere that needs to be taken care of before continuing.

So here is my question. If i continue to find that the body is not as straight as I originally thought, is it worth perhaps getting a fiberglass bonnet rather than going through the trouble of re-doing all of the body work that the DPO already did? How much $ does a fiberglass bonnet go for these days?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts, comments, and suggestions.

Dave
'68 Spit MkIII
