Trunk lid stripped to bare metal and primed.

Doors all fixed up and primed.

And I got a good start on pulling everything off the firewall, labeling, cleaning/degreasing etc.

I'll keep going on the engine bay by dropping the coolant, pulling the exhaust manifolds for cleaning/painting. I also need to remove the dampner shaft from the RH manifold that was originally for the heat riser. I'll remove the shaft and plug the shaft holes.

I'll be able to pull the heater hoses from the firewall once the coolant is gone and I'll pull the radiator at that time too.

With the exhaust manifolds off I'll have better access to the inner fenders and for cleaning stuff like the steering sector.

We'll get the firewall and inner fenders sanded down and primed soon.

Meanwhile I'll be able to hang the doors back on the car and adjust them. Then I can start shooting some color. I'd like to do the insides of the doors and jams, engine bay and bottoms of hood and trunk lid all at once.



Something clever here.
