Once the car was stripped down, I focused on restoring the body. Rust spots were meticulously treated, and dents were carefully repaired. The original paint color was matched, and the body was given a fresh coat, bringing it back to its original luster. It was incredibly satisfying to witness the transformation, as every stroke of the paintbrush breathed life back into the car.
