Frame was completely sanded down, all faceplates and most small parts soaked in Brake Fluid for 24 hours, then thoroughly degreased n scrubbed, pepped n painted...

Dash pad cheaply recovered ($7 material at fabric store, $12 can 3M Spray adhesive) Not that happy with pad, it's a 2 footer, but when you're sitting one foot away staring at it you know it's not quite factory issue, again done on the cheap

All paint used was Flat, found Satin in a can not consistent in spraying or drying
Chrome paint takes weeks to dry (You've been warned) Use a Hair dryer or the sun to bake dry

Not much to say except it's been a hell of a year finishing a car that took a backseat to more important issues in life.
Just got back from bodyshop a second time; The wetsanding and final buffing was put off til just last week. In hindsight I think the Mercedes Silver is Too Bright in the Direct Sunlight, but really nice in any other light.
Bunch of pics for the collectors.

Sorry, gotta click on the "Attachment" linky spot - I think it's because they're labeled Image.Jpeg from my Iphone instead of a real camera
