    Two weekends of stipping so far (2 more to go).
    Then off to the blaster to have the bottom stripped, then prime the whole thing and start getting aggressive.

    Dilli, that looks sweet, i too love the bare metal look.  What method of stripping did you use? That looks like a very solid car...

    Hi,
    I have done all of that stripping with one gallon of Marsons Aircraft Stripper.
    Put it on failrly heavy, and cover up quickly with poly (keeps from evaporating to quick ,and makes the stuff work harder)
    Scrape off, then a quick hit with 80 grit.
