I'm with JR it looks great to begin with.
I'm also with you Don, I hate filler and body work. And I really hate welding sheet metal body parts!
It'll be interesting to see where the filler fills in, since in your shots it really does look perfect. (then again so does my truck from about 30 yards away!)
Keep posting pics."

Welding in some of the bracing distorted the metal sidewalls a little, nothing major, but it raised up the surface in a couple of spots. We ground them flush, but to make them disappear totally we needed a skim coat of the filler. He also radiused some of the welds with the filler too.
We're heading over there now to see if it dried enough to cure it (I doubt it as they say 2-3 days for a total cure) but we can at least get some other parts ready to take to the powder coater tomorrow.

When I got married my friends asked if my spouse would be taking my name. I had to tell them it would be really silly if we were both named Fred. .
