i think it's coming along great!
im always checking this thread for updates, i want to see how it turns out
because mine is worse than that
i dont think i ever mentioned it
oh well i dont plan on keeping it for a long time, i plan on selling it and upgrading to an 05 L67 or intimidator
or maybe even 06/07
i got a quote of $500 to fix it and paint the whole passenger side of the car
anyways i love my monte the way it is and cant wait to see how ur project turns out

heres the KBB for it, its in great condition, especially the interior, for the miles it has on it, the rust is the only bad part
2003 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Coupe 2D Trade In Values, Reviews - Kelley Blue Book - LINK
heres some pics, i just washed her, shes beautiful
and a pic of the rust, the previous owner tried fixing it himself and made it ugly
he spray painted it and did some other crap to it, didnt even clean the dirty surface
but anyways like i said, I LOVE my monte hehe
but will try to sell it in a couple months

I've actualy never used the jelly... I always used the resin. You have a can of hte jelly on your table, but you call it resin all the way through.... hmm, never even opened a can of the jelly myself though. Hope it works out for you though!
And wheel wells aren't really a common Monte problem... they're just a plain car problem. I've never known of a car with a metal body with a rolled lip that would not rust out after 10 years, give or take, driven in harsh weather conditions. I just don't think there is anything you can do about it except build the cars out of fiberglass or someo f that new carbon fiber stuff.

Well no updates so far as finishing the paint or primer...ALTHOUGH its been just around 3 months and still holding very strong and not showing any signs of letting up. This being said the jelly (which i thought was resin :P) is working out just great! Ive been pretty busy with moving from place to place and work but homefully this weekend when i move into my new house i should have some time to atleast get the primer down and i will update with pictures!
