Details 82....

Saturday was pretty much a wasted day... waited on someone to arrive at the body shop so I could pick up my windshield and rear glass but they never showed up. Got to the dealership a bit after 1, so I worked on a few miscellaneous tasks that needed to get done..... stripped the paint off the trunk springs...

 

made the captive nut for the alternator adjustment arm...

 

 

and disassembled and blasted the cruise control servo...

 

so there was SOME PROGRESS! I also drug out the front & rear bumper reinforcements to see how I could reduce their mass and weight by a cutting away some of the metal.

 

More to come....

Details 81...

Another fun filled day of sandblasting!! I finished the hood...

and started on the deck lid.

A bit of surface rust on the underside of the metal...

and a remnant of the CB days,

but nothing major. Hit the edges and corners first to make sure there was no major rust in those spots before proceeding with the rest of the lid.

My lil' hopper blaster...

is a bit slow but at least I know it won't damage the sheet metal... but she gits-r-dun!

Until next installment...
