Hope to get the doors, inner fenders, hood and possibly the clam shell doors sandblasted, bodywork and primed this month.
Inner fenders and hood are off. Plan on taking to the sandblaster this week.
I have about 5 hours bodywork in doing it on top of what was already there. Still will need to block, and reprime.
. No rust just got hammered at one time. Also got the hood, hinges, inner fenders back from getting sand blasted. They look great. One rust spot on the left rear on the hood. Front edge is perfect.
These are known to rust on the leading edge.
Pics of the inner fenders and hood after sandblasting. Lot’s of holes to weld up on the inner fenders.
I removed the factory floor mat and wow, I found some awesome looking floor boards. No rust. In fact, it appears it’s a factory type black primer that we still intact. Under the mat, I also found an envelope with some cash. The envelope was dated 2010. $65 or so in the envelope….nice find!!!!
