Panel Beater

My car is at the panel beater for a week while they try to get all the duct tape off. No car for a week. Bugger.

I take it that "panel beater" is a quaint Australian term for "body shop?" Just how is it gonna fly without the duct tape holding it together???

Take a bent panel, and beat it.

Another term is "Smash Repairs" but that sounds too much like an instruction.

Panel beating is cruel as the panels are defenseless

A sound thrashing will do them good!

I don't *think* the chassis is bent, but I'll know soon. Looks like I'll have to check out Mondeos again.
