Almost ready for paint.  The shop let me come in and give a good scraping, wire wheeling and elbow grease work out to the trunk and interior floor.  Lot's of dried adhesive and some surface rust but it's now taking shape.  Only one small rust through spot directly under the gas pedal but I have a little patch piece from my parts car for that issue.  Picked my color after looking at hundreds of them.  I'll wait to reveal it when it's painted soon.  Here are some of the trunk and interior.  Still a work in progress.

Hot out of the booth.  New paint applied.  She was completely stripped to bare metal, all body work done, straightened lots of lines, primed, blocked, etc. etc.   PPG Ferrari Grigio Alloy paint color applied with three coats wet clear.  Now cut and buff, and reinstall interior.  360 running great. Keep working on small things.  Bad time of the day for pics but I was excited to show it off.

Thanks gents.  I feel like a kid in a candy store.  But I can't get too giddy.  Still need to work on dialing everything in.  But I'm having fun as the heavy lifting is virtually done.  At least I cleaned out my garage so I have a nice spot for her when I bring her home after Thanksgiving.

Getting closer.  Need to put the windows back in, bumpers and two front trim pieces are being chromed/polished.  Decided to redo the interior while I have it all apart.
