“I’ll blend it here; nobody will be able to tell. THAT’S how you can tell good bodywork - when you can’t tell where there’s bodywork!” said the owner of that car NEVER.
What's funny is I've seen a few on the road that have gone the duct tape repair route. Though none have gone so far as to paint the duct tape. I did see one where tape had been used to fix rusty rockers. It was done a while ago because the bottom of the tape had unstuck. So it looked like the car was wearing a short dress.
