I'm restoring another camelback. Yesterday I cleaned the area around the raised lettering on the frame. A lot of big pits were exposed. One of them, a bit smaller than a dime but very irregular shape, goes all the way through to the inside cavity of the casting.
I didn't grow up fixing auto bodies and I'm no pro at Bondo. I can't get to the inside of the (hollow) casting at all except through that hole. The hole is adjacent to two raised letters, which makes any kind of sanding or filing problematic. I'll post a picture later today.
How do you fill such a void? Of course, the casting will be painted so any kind of patch need not color match.
