Got some minor stuff done on the car, but it still counts as progress. The engine bay is clean and sanded. I'll probably sand two more times before paint.

And the interior has been cleaned, primed, and some rust encapsulator thrown in. I'll prime and sand one more time before paint.

A lot of progress in a years time. Tell us about the '68 in the back ground of this picture.

The 68 in the background is my Sport Satellite that I've owned since 1975. It is my first car and I've managed to keep it all these years. Its had a 383 in it, 440, chrome reverse, Keystones, Centerlines, and now a year correct 318 and steel police wheels, and about 4 paint jobs.

Well I've got a few more small things done, which includes having the rolling shell finished as far as rust and dents repaired. Now I'll have to start sanding and getting ready for paint.

This a pic of the top of one of the doors. Notice all the holes? I believe a upholstrey shop installed fabric on the upper door panels and this was how it was attached. Anyway I have a lot of holes to fix.

Ok, now to fix the body panels and get this thing ready for paint. Maybe I'll have some color next time.

Thanks for the garage comments. I was able to afford the garage by selling my Challenger, but it brought me back to the B-body fold, preferably the RoadRunner part of it. :D 69hemibeep, I know what you mean about the waves. I have noticed imperfections (slight) from working on the car this past year, but hopefully I can get'em out when I start sanding. I can't wait for some paint!
