Body work and new top

[Chihua33]

I just received a new top and this summer I'd like to do some body work on my car (it's going to be a summer of repairs and no driving unfortunately)

Would it be wise for me to hold off putting the new top on until after I do all the body work/repaint?

Absolutely! No point in ruining a new top and body work is nasty dirty work!

[Chihua33]

Kind of what I thought. Problem is I'm so excited to see my car with a new top! Lol
Anyone ever done the rear wheel arch replacements from the vendors? That's my next step

Do you have a MIG Welder ?

[SoFlaFiat]

Of you don't have a mig welder, getting one should be your next step

I don't personally have a welder, but I do have a cranberry marsh here I can do work at! There's pretty much any tool imaginable there ha.
