Gerahead's 71 Dart
Well . . . it's been almost exactly a year since my last post! Progress has been slow, for sure. As several others have mentioned here, I have been having some back problems. Those of you who have had this affliction know how much it can slow you down! I have still been plugging away with the paint prep. The mid-body line in the quarters has been kicking my a$$, but I have it nearly "perfected". All of the epoxy that I laid down years ago in the trunk interior, engine compartment, front wheel wells and passenger compartment have all been scuffed up. Last week while fine tuning the passenger door alignment, I noticed the lower rear corner was bent in about a 1/4"! How did I not see that before? :BangHead: It doesn't look like it will be too hard to line it back up. Just need to pull the door back off and buy a buddy a couple of beers to help with the man-handling. Everything has several good coats of high build and I am getting the pieces all guide coated and sanded slick with 240. My favorite job (he sez sarcastically)! I absolutely hate it, but once I get started, it goes pretty quickly.
