LOL Phil. Sorry. You have the pictures now though so you can see what is needed. Hoping to get more done this weekend. I really have to finish painting my garage but it is very hard to get motivated. Once I get it inside, it will start to go much faster. You didn't even see how good the seats and seat rails were that are in the attic. Ha ha. (but I know you don't want those seats anyway)

Your in WAY better shape than what most of us start with, I would take that ride in a heartbeat and change my screen name to Happy Dennis........you did good

Hi everyone. Just a quick update. I have most of the interior out and the trunk cleaned out. I have been taking pictures of everything and since the car is pretty much original, I thought they may help someone else.

Hope to have it to blaster before Christmas. Have to get the house and yard winterized first. I would much rather work on the car.

welcome...Looks like a good start. While you are disassembling take lots of pics so you remember where stuff goes. I used ziplock freezer bags gallon and quart to hold small parts, a 3 x 5 card thrown in with notes where the pieces came from. I blasted all my small parts myself, biggest part I did was the front subframe. Like many on here, used a cheap $120 Harbor freight blaster and Ace hardware medium silica sand run through a piece of window screen to get the big chunks out, (wear a N95 respirator which is good for silica dust).
