well im not a body man... sorry for the bondo edge.. i spent way to long on it and i could care less about it.. i just wanted to fix the rust and paint it ..

damn it... i never seen the other type 3's in the area... and the paint was free...

i knew i should have went with pink with the purple stripe...


and yes thats old rubber waiting till i get the money up for new rubber on my popouts..
