Found my dads original 1971 duster!
Hey guys. A little update. The body is bad in certain light and the paint had crazy swirl marks from sandpaper everywhere. It also had flat spots. I went to a local body shop, watched some videos and bought professional 2 stage polish, pads, sander, discs and a Milwaukee polisher with a quick connect. I got a little lesson on how to do it….and away I went. I have a background in cabinet making and building, so I wasnt going in totally blind. The results are pretty amazing. I had to wet sand twice with 1500 grit, once with 3000 grit, then cut polish twice and finally finish polish. Took me 2 long days, but here are the results. I also installed the stripes. Before and after pics- some anyway
