Repaired right rear fender. Good paint match. The spots you see are from the polishing compound...car has not been washed yet.

Another shot; you can compare to the first photo in this string to see how far back from the original damage you have to work to do a good repair. That small ding ends up having to rework a lot larger surface just to blend in properly.

Sanded back to bare metal and lightly skim coated with filler. Under that is a light layer of lead filler to fill in some of the more obvious gouges in the metal. Dave uses both: lead to get the surface to where it needs to be, and poly as a skim coat for fine contouring.

Had all the dings taken out of the hood last week by Dent Wizard (no interest, financial or otherwise); you can't see it in this shot, but there's a lot of road rash on the front 1/4 of the hood. Thinking next spring...time to go back in the shop and have my body guy sand back the hood and leading edge of the fenders, and refinish. This darn thing is too clean and nice right now, even with the stone chips. Loving taking care of it.

I had put the console extension in last winter, (just sitting in place wedged between the console and rear seat bottom...); I picked up some stick on leapers from Ebay...thought it looked ok here, since I don't have heated rear seats...and recovered that mounting piece for the switches. Adds a little pizzaz, no?

Interior cleaned out. Leather cleaned and treated today in the hot sun. Again. Can't have too much lanolin and moisture in that old Connoly.

Nice and clean. No dings, either, and the DR Colorchip stuff worked a treat taking care of some of the dings and chips along the flanks.

There were two big cracks along the knee padding that ran front to back that are not really visible anymore, and the color is even between the seat and the back on both the left and right, bottom and top.

Right front (passenger) seat. Was not as bad as the driver side (to be expected), but wanted it to match the driver side.

Front bolsters and knee padding were cracked and wrinkled. Still some wrinkles, but the cracks are filled and leveled. You really have to look closely to find where they were.
