What product are you using for filler or body putty? The whitish areas in your picture?? I'm about at that stage on mine..

Looks good!

Thanks!

After the paint had been stripped, I found that the car had been hit a couple of times and been repaired by Bubba the bodyman. I took it to a shop that has many years of doing fiberglass repair. I couldn't turn down the price they quoted me for doing all the repairs and painting the car $5500. So I don't know what brand body filler that is being used.
