Out of curiosity - why go to all that work and not remove the 2 antennas, let them fall down inside, and get a good finish underneath them?
Not taking the rear bumper off I understand.

I'm disappointed the car only got a masking tape job. Stripped down to the body would have been nice.

Have a bunch of those already. It was nice enough without paint so anything will be better. Pulled the antennas and Boyd trying to fix every pebble pock with spot putty. Trying to stay "right side up" on this one.

True, but any copcar this old, that's still around, is a survivor.
Unlike the Camaros and Corvettes that got stored and pampered from day one.
Phish - if there are any head-sized dents on the roof above the back doors - leave 'em in! I loved those on my old Dippy.

We have Mopar "survivor" cars that Bloomberg categorized as Benchmark status when they started evaluating steel cars. High dollar junk. LOL We are painting this so it will survive. New Mexico gets less that a foot of rain a year and we get almost 6 feet so it would have gone down fast since it will not be in climate control. In fact we have 4 inches predicted Fri/Sat. It will last my remaining lifetime unless someone "sees the light" and buys it. Deck lid had a gravity mishap somewhere which is why we had to fix the surface rust on the trunk floor. Hate bondo and had a perfect one off Lemons Monaco so will change that out. Pic of the only dent which we will fix without drilling holes. Hope to shoot SundayThere goes the 'Survivor' status...

Speaking of survivor, the deer did not make it. This picture is the winter of 66 with the original owner of a Custom Deluxe Hemi Coronet, 1 of 18. Notice the NH Dodge dealership in the background. I am the 2nd owner of the car and it has been used in the cross country Great Race twice, now showing 96k miles. Scratches from the antlers are still on the car. Now this is a "survivor". Mecum 2019??? Maybe.....There goes the 'Survivor' status...

Both cars are 426 Hemi Custom Deluxe (post cars) 1 of 18 auto and 1 of 31 4 speed. A matching set of survivors. The only matching set except color. Cert card, dealer invoice, build sheet etc etc exist on both cars. They stay in climate control where ole' whitey will be with the mower.LOL PS This ole' cop car just thinks it can "fry" tires. These guys are BAD!!!!
Nice progress!

Nice day so we did the jams, wheels and under trunk here at the shop. Dropped in the front seat so just a vacuum and cover tape removal from a complete nice interior. Trailer to paint booth tomorrow. Everything going good so far.

Well the graze of the winter storm postponed paint booth trip. Nice today so we did the hood bottom. Should be this weekend as all that's left is put the hood on and a 320 rubdown. Miss driving it.

320 rub down before paint? Does that produce any orange peel in the paint?
