Default Block sanding !

Block sanding sucks. I am painting the race car over the winter. Right now i am in block sanding the filler stage. I welded new quarter panel skins on both sides and fixed some rust in the lower corner of the doors. These skins where very low quality as Ames stated in the catalog. Had to skim the whole panel with filler. Had to skim the doors because someone must have sandblasted them at one point in the cars life. Also had to skim the roof because it looks like someone jumped up and down in the middle of the roof. I am starting to remember why I decided to make it a race car 25 years ago.
The car is going to probably remain white. Unless a color jumps out at me.The car was originally a black car. I am blocking to it perfection just in case I decide to go black.
I forgot how bad the dust is, I am at least getting a good arm work out.
