Making the Body Gap Look Better

(1/1)

jhendri542:
I have a 1934 Ford Sedan that is a 2-piece body. There seems to be some gap between the two pieces.  Will extra pop rivets help?  I tried pushing it together with my hands and it did not seem to move at all.  I am thinking of filling the gap with some material and just painting over.

justfreaky:
Mine is the same way. I think that is just how they fit. I thought about filling in the gap as well. It is a pretty large gap to fill, so may be prone to cracking. A lot of flex between the 2 halves.

jhendri542:
Perhaps whatever it is filled with needs to be relatively flexible as well.  One idea is use vinyl wrap.  That definitely can handle the flex.  Might even run a racing stripe of vinyl just to cover it up.

justfreaky:
That could be a good solution. It would definitely help the appearance! The coupe bodies look so much cleaner because they are a one piece body.
