Davin's 1950 Desoto style side truck

1. Davins... ... 60. Desoto... 61. Monaro... 62. Desoto... 63. Desoto... 64. Desoto... 65. Desoto... 66. Desoto... ... 122. Finished...

The lower of this quarter panel was quite rusty due to the large amount of crud that had collected. Note the new metal patch has been constructed in several sections. The use of the shrinker stretcher allowed the curved angle section to be made without distortion - or a huge number of cuts and welds. It pays to have the right equipment and this shows what can be achieved with metal- and years of experience. These bare metal areas are all treated with another few coats of epoxy primer. The welded areas as good as they are will be given a very thin smear of fibre glass filler inside an dout of this area to be absolutely sure no moisture can ever penetrate through to the finishing filler. Treated right this repair will last for another 50 years or longer
