Today I stripped out the trunk lid top and bottom the trunk channel and surround
Also stripped the tail panel ....all with no suprises...
Tomorrow I'll do the pass side door hinges ...ordered a kit online from a place in Sarnia short shipped two bushings sent them an email got a Call from them that nite ....they send me to there returns line leave a message ....that was a week ago ....crickets .....went out and bought bushing kit...last one from part source....counter guy was shocked he had it....
Once the bushings are in I'll strip the doors and the jambs..not gonna worry about the roof area to strip where the rubber seals fit and the chrome decor moldings attach to...I don't think...I'll look at it all tomorrow again...
Another note .....Krylon Semi flat black paint in an aerosol ...non to be had around here...
Home Depot,Rona , TSC,Homehardware,Canadian tire .....nothing ....so ordered it online from Grainger 5 cans $50 shipped to my door next couple days should Have them...need to paint up the inner fenders and heater box....apparently this is very close to factory ....
Pics tomorrow.....get caught up in the moment and forget pics...
Never mentioned this at the beginning but I'm only stripping the car down I'm shipping It off for prep and paint...hoping for the end result to be painted Navajo Orange with the 71-72 stripe kit.....and rear spoiler add on....similar to pic attached
