Spent today grinding out all the bog down my left rear quarter, cannot for the life of me see why they needed so much filler...
A couple of weird rust holes to repair

My lower tailgate is badly rusted on the inside bottom.... so I thought I would have a closer look at the tailgate off my old HX Sandman.
I was surprised to find very little rust in the front panel

Holy crap, there is a ton of bog, spray putty and high fill undercoat over the entire tailgate.
No wonder it seemed heavier than the others.

bugger all rust in the rear panel also. Took me hours to remove all the paint, bog and putty though.

Also took all the paint off the damaged drivers door in preparation for the repair when my stud welder arrives next week.
Only took five minutes to do the door as it was original paint... black etch primer, red oxide primer, Persian sand topcoat.

Notice my Nos sill panels on the ground, bought them for the HX, looks like I may not need them now.
