    This is the only way to go when your restoring one. You don't really know what might be hiding somewhere under the paint or primer. Looks like you got a great start. Keep us posted with pictures and information on your progress when the sheet metal arrives.

    You are cruzin' through this! Keep it up! It took me two years to get my car blasted and primed! Of course, I replaced the floors and trunk and a bunch of other stuff in that time, but I guess I'm just slow!

    Pipefish, the 'Cuda turned out to be pretty clean. (from the photo you included)  Keep us updated as you begin to replace the sheetmetal and continue to finish up the bodywork. :cheers:  The grille looks great, too.
