It can be repaired without removing the body from the frame but its not as easy.Remove the body bolt and bushing ,make the repair and replace the bolt and bushing.I guess I should say this all depends on how bad it is
been a long time since Ive been here but this is the first place I come to when Im stumped.I got a 58 corvette in the shop that is a duntov car and refinished in lacquer.Its a metallic blue and need some advice on blending metallic lacquer without clear,if any?Also looking for some info on paint...
Hey Bob,Hope things are going well.We've always done full mechanical.Thats what the great wall is for in the shop,it seperates build up/mechanical from paint and body.

I've dealt with Cranes quite a bit. I've bought two sets of side pipes in the last year and you're right he's the cheapest around. I did have an issue with him a few years ago(long story)But nothing that we couldn't resolve.
