Got the car back

I got my Olds back today. I had a big buck slam into the drivers side at 2:00 in the afternoon. Must of been out looking for love. It looks pretty good in my opinion. Though I may be bias.

It did scare the snot out of me when he hit. Luckily the window stayed in tact. I couldn't get the drivers door to open at first, had to grab the handle and pull it out as much as I could to make it work. You can't get skins for the door and the door had no rust at all in it. We looked at some replacement doors but they all had rust. The panel beater I used is old school and he was able to put it back into shape even at the change of direction.
