Well, this the weekend I've been waiting for for over 6 months, putting paint back on the car. I put plastic sheet on the exposed walls of the carport to creat a paint booth. I then taped up the car's exterior panels, except the front trunk and front fenders.

Just to get everyone up to speed, I have stripped the paint from the engine compartment, after replacing the right suspension ear and the engine shelf on that side. I also removed the back pad and glue. I then removed the tar from the passenger compartment floor, the glue behind the back pad, then the seam-sealer and all of the paint. Finally, I removed the seam-sealer and all of the paint from the rear trunk.

Here's a shot of the outside, before painting.
