A Beginners Guide to Classic Car Restoration Volume #3

Here is the continuation of A beginners guide to classic car restoration; in the last installment we had just finished checking the panel gaps on the doors of the car.

This next check will be the last one before we move on to the tare down process, I have already done a lot of articles on the tare process in the past, so I will not delve into that again. Here we are going to check the gaps around the trunk or (Deck Lid ) opening.

Just like all of the other gaps that should be uniform and should be 1/16″ to 1/8 inch wide. If they are not this could indicate one of two things, either you have a bent hinge, or the car has been hit in the rear.
