Had the engine and trans rebuilt but couldn't stand to see it just sitting on the frame so I dropped them in my Firebird.

The body has been on the rotisserie since 2008. I need to blast and paint the underside but I am dreading the mess, I think that's why I have not made to much progress.

The way I see it, at my current rate I will need a least 10 more years to complete this project.

Have been there on the body on the rotisserie. BUT you can blast it standing up! Theres a soda blasting place here that would do it for 250 probably. Have the epoxy primer ready when your done. If your doing yourself, hire a reliable teen to help with cleanup, and doing the job, will be worth it..
