Default Minor Progress Update

The next job is to strip out the interior, pull the gas tank & lines, then remove the bare block and trans. I'll probably remove the dash and formula wheel while I'm at it. Not sure how to attack the underside of the floor which has just light surface rust. I would like to media blast and paint it semi-gloss black...but not sure of the easiest/best way yet. I also want to patch the only bad spot on the body which includes a corresponding little patch on the outer wheel house.

I'm assuming Fremont A-bodies have black painted undersides with body paint overspray like many of the other assembly plants.
