Fellas -

Plan to paint my 68 Lemans convt and believe that's an excuse to purchase some new tools. Car is in pretty good shape, but needs some dents worked out, minor rust repair. Think I'm going to do a "scuff and shoot" over the existing paint.

Anyway, in addition to the normal hand tools, I have a DA orbital sander, DeVilbiss HVLP "Finish Line" gun (1.3, 1.5, 1.8 tips), 80 gallon compressor, MIG welder (Miller 211), cutoff wheel, sheetmetal nibbler, die grinder, etc.

Figure I need:

Hammers and dollies - what about this set from Eastwood - http://www.eastwood.com/7-pc-body-and-fender-pro-set-fiberglass-handles.html

Also need some sanding blocks, right? How 'bout these - http://www.eastwood.com/7-pc-body-and-fender-pro-set-fiberglass-handles.html

What about an air sander? http://www.eastwood.com/straight-line-air-sander.html

And a palm sander?

I have a pair of the metal stands that can be used to support bumpers, fenders, decklids, doors, etc while you are working on them.

Suppose I'll need a pile of sandpaper as well as masking tape and paper.

What did I miss? Recommendations on the above list?

Thanks,

Scott
