what day will your tv show start ???

@MrDjvance At this point we don't know the airing date of Tough Love Garage On Discovery Channel 3NET, They pulled it from the orginal date because of all the internet activity that was taken on the show, and are going to promote it to a better standing point. I can say that it will be in January somtime, and I will let everyone know exactly when.. Thanks for the support and comments. Pete

How would you tackle a very rusty chasis on a unibody car..Replacing the peices are almost out of the question with the car i have because replacement body parts are nearly impossible to find..The car is a 76 Dodge aspen R/t..The left side front chasis has almost eaten away ..theres still enough to weld to so would it be possible to make an intire bottom piece of the frame sort of like a cap and just weld it in place? It's good so far back..Like 1ft behind the shock mounts but after that.

@ahhGroovymangroovy Sounds like you need a parts car to finish this project out. All I can say is good luck on this one. Let me know your progress, would like to see how it turns out. Pete

hey pete u also forgot to mention when u were priming over ur body iv also noticed when i did mine the bondo is like a sponge it absorbs so much paint thats why its best to put a thick coat on it also.

[swrnc]

@76camaro327 Good point, well taken. When you have a big bondo area, it's better to apply more primer due to the fact of absortion.... Thats why I come back and dry sand then reprime later down the line. Take it easy Pete

hay pete get your dog a girlfrend ok !!!

Great videos!!! Thanks for taking the time to put out all of this helpful info. Yours is the best!! To clarify: So I do all of the bondo and then immediately prime. Then wait 2-3 weeks for primer and bondo to fully cure? Even after waiting this time won't there be shrinkage to worry about?

GREAT WORK PETE!!! I currently live in Spain but in about 6 months or so I will be moving back to Sugar Land, Tx. I have a 66 GTO that is in bad shape & I am looking for a quality shop. I have noticed your in Lewisville near Fort Worth so I was thinking of giving you another project. You suggest I look for a local shop, or would it not be much trouble being that I will live about 4 hours away soon? I can send you a few photos to give you the current state of the car. Let me know. Thanks bud
