Maserati A6GCS: Panel Seams in Detail
Seen at the Stuttgart show was this 1954? Maserati A6GCS body undergoing restoration by Reklus, a company in Argentina. I tried to photograph all the body seams as well as some of the internal structure (tube frame). I think there's a lot of 'learning' here for someone who takes the time to consider the placement of each seam.

Thanks for the photo shares, Bill.
If anyone starts thinking this work is "standard" quality for Italian coach builders ("carrozzeria") - No, I do not think it is, at all. This is rough work, bottom of the scale, in my experience.

I was thinking there must have been a lot of filler on that body.
What did they use as filler for alloy back then?. Jim

Peter PS Ferrari and Maserati where built more or less the same way. Also note ......the welds are too close to the return, also all of the NON ORIGINAL WELDS where not beaten down......................

Front fender
Hey Guys,
New guy here. I hope I can post a question without looking like a green horn. In the first photo where we see the body head on. How much of the front fender, from lower directional past the headlight, down through wheel well is one piece?
