Here's the inner fenders with the brown-ish looking coating (cosmoline?) on the top and the results of a few hours of scrubbing with mineral spirits (did nothing), paint thinner (did nothing), then gasoline (did something). He even sprayed the cowls as seen in the May '82 picture. It took quite a bit of rubbing with gasoline to clean it off the cowls.

Fresh Palladium Silver paint applied this past week. The top of the dash and cowl and rear package shelf are getting painted tomorrow. It gets kicked out of the shop on Monday for reassembly. It's finally one color now!
