Just once in my life I would like to strip an old muscle-car down and have that foundation to work with.

I hate seeing guys rush to strip a car & destroy good trim & screw up the glass....At the very least get the trim off & use Duct tape on the glass...

Other than that it looks great, solid metal makes it so much easier....

Sweet car. Careful who you trust with your car. When they are getting paid a flat rate mentallity can drive how they operate, and they can cut corners.

doesn't look much different naked. Maybe you could skip the paint and just clear the steel

What did you use to get the paint off? DA, sandblast, or something else. Thanks

Paint stripper within a couple inches of the edges/jams/trim. It will only take it to the original primer. The last couple of inches is very carefully razor bladed and hand sanded.
It is one of my best friends who is doing it in our paint shop and he takes as much pride in it as I do. He is off work right now after having a fatty tumor taken out and won't take a dime from me for what he is doing. In fact if he ever wants to take a cruise w/ his wife he has keys to the garage and I know it is as good of hands as mine.

Nice looking car. When I had mine done I found ALOT more than you. It was kind of scary

Your looks very solid. Nice project
