thats a pic of EVL 850 for those playing at home. so sad seeing him go.

LOL.. about ime you got back to the computer... lol...

yes thats the baby.. nothing left in it now apart from the windows. take them out tomorrow morning... then Tue will start on the sandblasting the inside..

well 1 week has past from when the 850 arived.... with EVERY thing out of the car..
I started striping the paint on the inside today.. spent 5 hours today... so for the front floor all the way up under the dash is now bear metal.. will be back on the job tomorrow and do the back half inside... then monday will start on getting the inside painted.

Have been taking a few pics hear and there. and will get them up during the week.

you're a quick worker i must say

1. what are you using to strip the paint
2. have you removed the glass
3. why paint inside first, dont you wanna paint a whole shell in one go?

cheers
Duc

LOL.. thanks. will get there. just got to keep at it. not to bad for someone working a full time job. and don't like to talk $$ lol paid what I was willing to spend. and there is really not much rust at all. there was very little surface rust in the front drivers floor. that was it.. all good. I have done more now then what is in the pics. the insite is ALL stripped back. and will start painting in the morning.

oh shucks dontcha just love the smell of charring paint, the primer dust clinging onto your nose hairs, the revealing of bare metal just like it was laid down 40 years ago

i hate it when the tar clogs up the wire wheel

lol.... thats next on the clean up list.. should be ok... nothing I am stressing over.

OMG.....quality work bro.....quality!!!!

Thanks JAM... Quality work hey? lol I would say its normal.. must say my work patten and level of work has improved over the last few years. maybe the Air force has done something to me... lol

Now here is a question for you all. noticed this the other day. This might be a silly question.. but this is my first round nose.. so got nothing to compair it to really. The id plate on the car has the body number stamped under it on the fire wall. they match... but the number stamped on the radiator pannel is different... any ideas? there is no way this car has been crashed at any time so it is all factory panels....
