I think I am done stripping paint! I have stripped paint down to metal in wheel wells, and on dash about half way down. I think I am to the point where I can get a coat of Epoxy primer and then paint. There may be some places where some body filler is needed, but not much. One spot of rust that I know of and it is small.

But to get the car anywhere, I need to borrow a tow bar. Anyone have one they would loan me? I will come and get it and return once it is at the shop, where ever the shop may be.

Pics to follow...



I got a tow bar you can borrow Ron. Let me know when you need it and you can cruise over and get it.

Ben,

Thank you! That would be perfect. It should be in the next week or so, I'll let you know.

As far as I know, it is pretty much ready for some epoxy primer and then paint and clear. I set her on the wheels and tires I got for $20 bucks a few months back. It is coming together slowly...
