Hot Rod Magazine: 10-Part Series on Auto Body & Paint
The May 2006 Hot Rod features the kick-off article for their 10-part Body and paint Special.
It'll run from now until Feb. '07 with everything you'd ever want to know about body work, prep, panel straightening, materials, painting tips, reassembly and post-paint care. It looks to be a great series -- especially for those of us who have done some mediocre body work and painting on their Pontiacs. (Like me.)  I am going to redo the GTO after this season, because my paint job in '04 was sub-par. This time, I'll use a better working environment and a few extra gallons of some stuff they call "patience" which is one ingredient I must've left outa my last paint attempt.

I've got three issues of a Hot Rod Mag publication called "Paint and Body". Sounds like the same thing?
At any rate, I really enjoy the magazine although it is something of a long advertisement for Goodmark Industries as almost every article features use of their sheetmetal and even their employees doing a lot of the work shown.

Greg,I think most of that is done at the new Goodmark Installation Center.They have their own shop that installs sheetmetal only now.It used to be a shop called Metal Finish USA.They are in Clevland Ga,while you are there you can check out the cabbage patch hospital

I'll have to look out for that. I am starting the stripping and fixing process right now. No fun. At least the car is straight for the most part.

But- the editorial in the front of that issue rings too true to me. The editor's experiences sound just like mine- can't get it right no matter how we try!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
