"The blaster is next and I think we are both cringing at what he will find..."

Bob, I sure can relate to that comment! I sure hope you get a nice surprise and not a mission creep special.

I really think he should pull those "formerly" NOS quarters that were installed in the 1980's and replace the inner and outer wheel houses (which weren't available back in the day and instead were just badly patched). They were installed by the alleged restorer in the 1980's using brazing rod and not by electric welding.

Do it once, right and you'll never regret it.

This way it will be 100% perfect when you sell it back to me. ;-)

So the Black Car is stripped, on a rotisserie and headed for the blaster on Wednesday. Tom is taking it to a commercial blasts instead of having a driveway job done which is smart. We've talked, and depending on what we find the car may go to the AMD Installation facility in Atlanta if it needs substantial metal work. Meanwhile Tom has plenty to keep him busy with the front and rear suspension, and front sheetmetal. Sometime in the last week the engine also got painted and is now ready to get a few parts installed, and a few more mocked up if for no reason other than trying to remember how everything goes back together. The paint is the Tiemans formulation.

...and the picture of Anna, well that's just because.
