O'Malley_808 body work page
So I am currently in the body shop working on my car, they are guiding me and helping whenever I need a hand and I have 20+ employees colluding to give me advice on this project!
They are a well established shop and are currently building a custom tubbed out old cuda with a srt-8 full susp and drivetrain swap and have a gillardo they just repaired. So to say the least they know what they are doing
I have absolutely no experience with body work, I installed my own turbo kit and do all my own work on my car from engine swaps to diffs to stereo. I am however pretty handy and not scared to learn. So this is a learning process for me so if there are any body professionals looking at this and it isnt perfect, whatever needs to be touched up will be done by the professionals at the shop, im just getting the bulk of the work done myself!
Anyways the car is getting fully resprayed OEM new formula red, emblems all shaved, and widened stance at the same time.
And the rear ASM fenders with ASM rear bumper...This was scary stuff
The cut will be cleaned up tommorow and the seams will be welded, this was just a rough cut so far so dont mind it not looking perfect just yet. More to come tmw!
Comments welcome, and since I know someone is gunna say "OMG why would you do that to your car blah blah blah..." its my car, I had it stock for 3 years, I want more tire in the rear, and I want it to be different.
Before body shop taking it out of storage
