Default Some PC' action

I recently picked up the Porter Cable from AutoGeek. I've been following GoFast's threads for a while now. I did a mini van a few weeks ago and it turned out really nice.

I really wanted to see what the PC could do and to see if I had learned anything. I wanted to find a car that the paint was so bad it didn't look possible to fix.

I know what your thinking. LilJay don't know Porter Cablin'

I found the car I was looking for. A retired delivery vehicle from a local parts supplier. It's not a F-body but I wanted to show what the PC and a little bit of knowlege can do.

Here's some pics of the front passenger side fender.







This is what it looks like now.










Thanks looking.

Jason
