Gerahead's 71 Dart
Well, it has been a long time since I posted a progress report! I was making pretty good progress last fall and then ended up in the hospital for a week and a half with a ruptured appendix. That pretty much killed the project for the winter. This spring has been a long time coming and can finally get back after it. So to recap, the door jambs, cowl area, inner engine bay, outer aprons, quarter/fender extensions and passenger door still need to be stripped. The inner side of the pass door got stripped and primed over the weekend. tonight I stripped and DA'd the outer surface of the door.
There was a lot of product on this door. I really had to work that 3M stripper to get through it. There were 7-layers of primer, sealer and paint on this thing. Not to mention a couple of puddles of mud!
Got the surface rubbed with the DA and 80-grit. Will DA it with 150 tomorrow night and squirt some epoxy primer on it. Moving right along! L8r!
