Looks great zcub22. I also fixed up a 126, and I hate to say it, but yours looks a bit better than mine. I didn't do a true restoration on my 126, and I believe that most folks do not do a true 100% restoration.

I've got a question for everyone in which I'm curious to know what you all think. Many folks are pretty hard on people (This isn't directed at anyone, just everyone in general) when it comes to restoring.

My question is this:

Does using panel/sheet-metal filler qualify as a restoration? Let's assume that the owner gets the panel within 100% spec of how it came out of the dies. Does it still count as a restoration even if the panel now has filler?

I'm not asking for a lack of my own opinion on the matter, just curious, because I've seen many on here crack down on folks for not using "100%" OEM, yet they fill the panels up with bondo. So what are your thoughts?
