The media blaster decided to put a paint meter on car yesterday before he started blasting....just for kicks. Most of the car was around 40 mics. Lower quarters were around 220 mics!! Needless to say he was on his 3rd pass this afternoon and still going.

Looks like you are on your way to a nice straight body and paint job. :thumbsup: Got any pics of the dead mice? :lol:

Very cool. Moving right along!:thumbsup:

Back from media blast!! I am actually quite happy that the quarters are the real only trouble spots. Lots of old school brazing.

Very happy that the windshield cowls are in good shape both front and back.

It amazes me that people did that bad of metal work back then and thought it was fine to just put 5 gallons of mud over it.. Should have just left the rust and mudded over that instead! Looks pretty damn nice other then those quarters.

Bronze and bondo don't play well with each other!

Back then I think it was probably the way to do it. Not the right way...but the most common way.
