I had a customer come in today and ask how much a 55 gallon barrel of Bondo would cost. He had an old truck he was going to fix up.

He used to buy special wood filler before he found out it was nothing by re-labeled Bondo.
I saw a fake hood scoop molded out of Bondo and 1/4 inch wire mesh. That was a cool 64 Falcon.
