Remember if it say Bondo in its name keeeeeeeep walking..

Thanks TC, head to the LHS soon to pic up some Evercoat! Wait... would it be at a automotive store? Or a hardware store?


I really appreciate the suggestions guys! I'm excited to finish it!

Well, here's an update!
Cut out a piece of styrene, and used some of that glue to melt the plastic pieces together!



I picked a piece with a rivet that matches the others.



A few holes here and there, but that's what the putties for right?





That's it for now! Thanks for following this build guys!

Oh, and IT SNOWED HERE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 76 YEARS!!!

More to come soon!

Catch ya on the flip side.

You can also fill the holes with plastic. Cut thin slices, insert them, use your MEK to melt, harden, cut off excess, sand, then glaze and sand. And yes evercoat is an automotive filler.
