    One of the things I look at on body work is how the line of reflection lines up at body seams. Quite often, when fenders, doors, quarter panels, etc are sanded separately, the edges get sanded down too much. The result is reflection having small funnel-like shape at the body seams, instead of clean line even if the body panels are aligned correctly.

    Looking at the first pic, this car looks to be one of better examples of restored cars out there.

    The car was beautiful and drove great. Seller didn't want to budge off his $11,900 price tho. Granted the car was well worth it, I passed and have decided to just finish up the '32. I have all the parts and a brand new motor for it, and it won't cost me but about $6,500 to get the body all done and painted. I can work on anyhting mechanical, but when it comes to bodywork I am lost.... i can't even paint by numbers LOL

    too bad that bonnie and clyde car down at the cali nevada state line don't look that nice.

    it's nothing more then sheet metal with holes and broken glass now. not one ounce of paint.

    wondering if it's the real deal though. or a clone.
