Moving along to the day after Christmas of 2019.
Now that the panel alignment fiasco is behind me, it's time to strip her down to the skeleton. I was just doing sporadic body work on it, when my friend suggest taking it down completely and stripping all the paint off. He was telling me the fumes from the paint remover can actually loosen and lift the body filler, so it's better to start from bare metal, then deal with the body work.
The car only had a primer coat, and the original rally green under it, so it's not had much done on the last 50 years, but definitely has some road rash.

Take it all down. I wonder how many more times I'll do this






What do you do when you have to take the hood off by yourself? You improvise





I almost stuck with the original green, but chose something else. You'll see soon, if you stay tuned to this build









Some rust in the lower left rear quarter to fix





Got'r up on the rotisserie
