I think you need to spend more time in the tyre section 1st before upgrading to other sections.........

Yeah I'll vote for it...
After the little altercation someone had with my car while I was at work, I could really use a section like this.

Yeah, sounds like a top idea. Maybe it could have some nice tutorials in it too.

Know I'm starting to see more posts in areas such as 'the pub' relating to panels and other exterior fittings!!! A more specific section would be well and truly used in my opinion, thanks to everyone who agrees!!!

I agree, but it is a 'treat with extreme care' section. Panel work, painting and even panel fitment and gapping is a skill that takes along time to master, hence why the apprenticeship is 4 years. All I am saying is that it isn't as easy as buying bog, sanding and painting if you get my drift...

Exactly so long as people acknowledge that it isn't as easy as it looks sometimes

i could have used it when i kicked the back of fairlane in when the net got stuck in the locking mechanism and it would not open.
Poor Aussie Pete ruined a good set of seat covers that day

I can use a section like it, not many panel beaters in this area want to touch older cars. I've done in the front of my xb and need all the help i can get.. especially reassembling bits, theres always those two bolts left over!!! lol

The old man's a panel beater & spraypainter, has been for 35 years. He's willing to offer his advice.

That's a great idea, finally somewhere to talk about body kits as well?

No, begging is good, though some home made treats for the trip to Wagga Wagga will guarantee the section!
