We usually work every Wednesday night, but after we got the front wells sprayed, we couldn't wait to get working on the rears!! My wife wasn't feeling good after dinner, and my friend helping me was already at the house... And what do ya know, HE HAD HIS SHOP GEAR. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Of course!

Behold!!!! :twisted: :twisted:

Oh, now my motivation to get all the nuts, bolts, and hardware all zinc'd has been kicked into high gear!! I can't WAIT to start putting all new pieces back into the caR!

Looks great! Working on stripping my project right now and totally feel you on the amount of work. It’s taken me ~3 hrs to strip the rear right wheel well.

What did you use for coating?
Did you re-spray the entire undercarriage, if so how did you manage without a rotisserie? I’m trying to sort that out.

What paint did you use? The under fender work looks glorious. I'm very impressed, quality prep and paint work. :beer:
