LX Torana rear/ rear corner patch panel
Some ongoing projects, making repair sections for Australian made 1978 Hatchback Torana.
Some time ago I made some fiberglass hammer forms which was moulded off the original donor car to make the corners of the car from top to bottom. The corner is in two pieces welded together.

So these are the hammer forms, and one picture of the wireframe to check the parts. The wireframe is made from fiberglass body filler(bondo). I used a glue or silicon applicator to apply the bondo wireframe on the original body section i wanted to copy. Just using an old used silicon cartridge was good enough. I cut down the cartridge to a length of about 6 inches or 150mm. I didnt want to go any longer than that because the bondo could go off before i pumped it all out. Basically when i cut the cartridge to size i just mix some bondo and scoop it into the cartridge, re-use the piston or plunger, put it in the applicator as normal and ready to use.
