過去に補修されたベコベコのフェンダーをまっさらな状態に戻して鈑金修理からやり直す!【#35 Mazda RX-7 FD3Sレストア】
Summary
TLDRThe video shows the process of restoring and repainting the front fenders on an FD3S Mazda RX-7. The fenders are dented and warped, so the host uses body filler and hammering techniques to smooth and shape the metal. He strips the old paint, applies primer, body filler to dents, sands it all down, and repaints the fenders in a matching grey color. The work is tedious but the car edges closer to completion. Overall, it demonstrates metal shaping skills and step-by-step bodywork and repainting on a classic sports car.
