  1. I see cars for sale that read no body filler so when restoring my cars fenders,ect. is it better to apply many layers of filler primer to get the panels as flat as possible or use body filler? I've been using both. Is there something other than bondo  that works better. I had an old V.W. Bug that I drove by a body shop once and the guy saw the door panel and said "surf's up dude" I guess because it was kinda wavy. My dad once told me when he was a service manager for a Pontiac dealership a man came in and said his car done been ribb rubbed! I guess he meant side swiped. Thanks! And happy mother's day to any moms on this site. Greg.

  2. Does it lessen the value of a restoration if original hardware is replaced with stainless vs.non or nyloc nuts vs. Lock washers or Phillips head screws vs. Straight slotted ones? On a 30s vehicle. I'm not sure when Phillips screws were first used but I don't think in the 30s.Thanks,Greg.
