Thanks to William for his advice!
Got the 72 on the Rotiserrie, can already tell how much easier working on the car will be and (depending on my skill level😊) how much better of a job I can get done!
Bottom cleaning up nice!

A really good start.......

I hope you understand we will be wanting lot's of photos to track the progress!

I'll follow these lines a little ways more,

Until I can find what I'm looking for.

With the pedal to the metal,

I'm gaining my speed.

Can't remember, were the frt wheel wells painted the body color or just shot with undercoat? I'm trying to decide if I'm going to paint them, leave them color or spray undercoat over paint. My plan for the bottom of the car is to take it down to near metal, prime it then undercoat it. My goal is for a quality driver car not a "concourse" correct show car. ANY advice or suggestions is appreciated.
Thx, Gary

Hi,
I use youtube a lot to learn. One of the best is TREVS BLOG. He has a nice video about the undercoat he did to his van. The link is:

Stay with it. I have never did a full rotisserie restoration however it is easy to get distracted and abandon the work. Let the fun begin especially with the free time the World is getting now for these back burner projects.
