I spent over two weeks on just the gas tank.
There were quite a number of small dents plus a fairly large dent on the top left side.
One of the guys I worked with does full auto restorations and he helped me remove that large dent.
When you're trying to feather out all those dents on a surface that is as rounded as the RZ tank, it takes lots of patience. :smt003
