Bodywork

While my Vette appears to have avoided big crashes it's had its share of smaller "incidents". The fiberglas had cracked in several places like the front air dam area, tops of front fender openings, bottoms of rear fenders, area behind rear bumbers etc. There were also some older repairs like a big repair section in drivers side door. Some of the cracks had been "repaired" with just some filler.

Under the primer I found a few more cracks that had been repaired with a lump of filler, like this mess at the rear wheel opening.
