Suggestion: resize your photos prior to posting so that we can actually see what you are doing! Sounds interesting, but hard to see...

Thanks, I’ll give it another try. Having a rough time getting the hang of this forum, I tried posting as attachments, got a security token error. Tried linking them from the gallery on another forum and they’re huge and I still get errors…… Even got a fatal error posting this reply….maybe because I work off an iPad?

Until I sort my photo issue out, thought I’d post the link for the factory five forum, the photos work there for some reason. I’m sure it’s my error

Ok, I needed to find an app for my iPad to allow me to resize photos. I think I got it now.

By golly, I think you’re getting there. What are you going to do for a rear glass? After you get all the fiberglass work pretty much done I would sit it out in the sun for a couple of weeks and let the heat take care of any glass shrinkage and moving and help stabilize it.

The top came with what looks like Lexan windows. I've been checking all along the way to make sure they'll still fit. I have been putting it out in the sun as much as possible.

Default Looking for help/advice from bodywork guys

Ok, I've laid about 3 thin coats of stranded filler and one of regular filler (which I haven't sanded yet) and here's where I'm at.

From the front.



From the side.



So, how to deal with the dip in the front to back shot? Too much to fill? more glass?

Thanks in advance.

John
