Well, I have started the final stages of tear down which means dash and components and doors...
Before the doors are gutted and removed...locks out, windows out, cranks out, door handles out, door locks out, and hinges out!
Here are the door shells...again shocked at how little rust I found in the doors...
Last night 20 Apr 12, I spent 5 hrs taking the dash apart. Steering column, master cylinder, dash pad, dash panel and gauges, glove box...etc
I decided that I am going to leave one piece of this car completed original...the steering column...My Grandmother Minnie used that same steering wheel and I will remember her every time I drive this car...can't wait!!!!
Took the remaining window and trim molding out and found some surface rust....good bye nastiness!
This is actually the worse rust on the car that I have found. The front windshield track is severely pitted with holes so we will just cut that out and weld in another piece...
And here is the new clean front end with everything finally removed...
Frame and Body...going to look nice when I am done...Also, after much prayer I had my prayers answered...I found the body shop to do the final resto work and paint...Anchor Body Shop in Warner Robins...spoke to Rick for almost 2 hrs and I believe he is the man to do the job!
