now that the fender is off i can see the nuts holding on the trim piece.

one of the ones i can't get off is the one right before the back fender well. it is the vertical one on the front of the fender well in the rear. i just want to be careful as the trim on this car is in great shape. just a few dings and one major smash, but other than that it is perfect w/ no pitting or anything.

enjoy the pics from this morning.

expect to see the whole front of the car off soon. i wanted to do this so i could dip little pieces a time....they are cheaper to dip...about 150 bucks a panel...the body is about 1800, so it will have to wait for now. the frame is about 500.

i will do the doors, hood, trunk lid and front fenders first.

i also plan to lift the body off soon to see everything underneath better.

later for now.....

p.s. and good location for replacement front floor pans. i saw a set on ebay....
