Firstly I must say how amazing so many of you are for the work you do restoring these cars. I continue to be overwhelmed as I dive deeper and deeper into my first auto restoration of any kind. I keep taking things apart and have no idea how I will get them back together.

I was trying to keep my project isolated to the longs, then the firewall, then redoing the POs bad Hellhole repair. Now I have thrown out all caution and decided to strip the car completely.

I pulled the rest of the harness (the front end of the car) out yesterday and the headlights, gas tank, windshield, dashboard, ventilation and bumpers etc. It’s only the front and rear suspension and a couple of trim pieces left

One thing no one mentions much is storage, I have a small house and man do all the parts take up a lot of space.

Anyway, I am going to finish stripping the car then have it sandblasted and primered. I am curious about the doors. They are in pretty good shape, but I’m thinking I am going this far, should I just have them blasted too?

How hard is getting the glass and regulator stuff out of em? If it’s a major pain maybe I should just deal with them without disassembling.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

-Andrew
