Did you find any unexpected surprises when it was all stripped down ,I hope not . Are you going back same color as before?

No not really but I just talked to my buddy today and he said he had the whole thing sanded and ready for primer. He said there was a little bit of bondo in the passenger rear quarter but not bad at all. Other than that it looks all good. Very straight, and yes I'm going to paint it the original Cortez silver.

Looking forward to seeing the finished car.

update with pics
 

Here's a lil update. They weren't at the shop today but I found it outside all primed. I think the circles are where he's gonna do some more bodywork. Hope he's done soon because I want to have it all show ready before May. Think it's possible?

looks great! what colour are you laying on the car

the original paint code 69, cortez silver.

Looking good.

Car is gettin there. Are you still shooting for your late May finish date?

Yeah I still am. Actually even earlier, I wanted to have it ready for may 20th because my town is having there own car show. The painter is just about done with all the bodywork. He also doesn't work full time on it, only nights and weekends when he doesnt have any collision work. I'm just hoping there's no accidents around here for the next few weeks.
