My 75 IH Scout 11 was stolen and damaged after I spent 6 months taking it to bare metal and priming it and re-shooting a new color in addition to 4 layers of clear coat. So pretty pissed as they damaged the paint in several areas large damage some to the base primer.
My question is how should I address it? It looks like I can sand it all over again and I'm planning on changing colors I have a booth to repaint it, so that's not a problem. There is also several areas I'll need to straighten out some dents they put in and body fill.
Any Ideas would be appreciated. What do you all think?
thanks. Gary

I will get some pictures posted, and no they didn't catch the thieves. Funny thing they recovered it 5 miles from where it was taken, me being cheep when i parked it it was running on fumes. Turns out it ran out of gas, and the abandon it in the middle of the road. :rotfl: :talkhand:
