I know I haven't been on here for awhile, but I finally had a month to go out and block sand my chally so I could put it in it's next stage of primer. It is finally ready for paint :droolingbounce:

The trunk and floors had rust and the rear quarters were packed with bondo for about 4 inches up. The front fenders were loaded so i bought a set out of New Mexico that were near perfect as far as rust. The doors are the original and they were perfect after a good media blasting. I did all the metal work, actually I have done everything to this car myself, as I will aslo be painting it Sassy Grass.
