I like that square tube bumper you got there Brady, real simple and keeps other cars far away from all that hard work.

Yeah,
I got that on there so the wife can drive the car too!

Brady,

Do you think the car will be done by the fall?

Brady,
You are one hard working savage! Everything looks great. I'll run the top down after you get back from school. Let me know what day you are going to work on the car and I'll give you a hand. I will see you tomorrow am at the Fiat Freak Out. George

Probably not till next summer or end of spring. I have to come up with the money to paint. Money is the factor here. I have the time to work on it.

Well I got it out of the garage and ready to media blast tomorrow.

When the car is upside down,you can get the chrome top hooks off without the 8mm nuts disappearing into the black hole.

That is one He.. of a project you have there. I'm really impressed and look forward to your posts on the continuing saga.

That rig is so awesome!
From your earlier pics, I'd guessed that's what you had created.
That's going to make it sooo much easier to restore and paint!
I've got my body down to just the shell, too, and I'm seriously giving your invention notice. I may have to build one!

Oh, by the way, you're the media blast king! Great work!

Here's what I got done the first long day. If I had a larger compressor, I'd probably be almost done. But I only have a 33 gal one that loves to sing.

You da man!
I can't wait to see how that underside turns out.
Please be sure to continue documenting the steps!

Hi Brady,
You might have to write a magazine article on this restoration. I'll call you tonight on that gas tank info. I have the kit in front of me. It's made by Kreem and is a 3 step process. It contains phosphoric acid as a wash cleaner and methyl ethyl ketone as a conditioner. After that dries you use the liquid liner. Looks pretty easy. I also have another set of tires for you. They look pretty good. This way you can have two sets to choose from.
The car looks great. Make sure you prime it before it rusts. George

2nd day of blasting.

Great job, what color are you going to paint it?

Hi Brady,
Tony might come down also. How about you Ralph? Want to actually see the wonder rotesserie?

azygoustoyou · Post by **azygoustoyou** » Wed Sep 02, 2009 7:19 pm

3rd day blasting. The bottom is done. So is the engine bay. Now I'm in the interior area. I'm getting tired!
