im doing full resto, it could have been sanblasted, but the surface was so badly pitted. Im having nightmares, because i have two ways of approaching this.
the hardest way will be to get this... which i have...  means getting the car to this....  then after that flip it and undercoat it  i want this car perfect, and only I can do it and know whats done to it. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

Looks to be coming along nicely. After three years the real fun will be remembering how to put it all back together.
