more paint stripping tonight!
got the roof finished, and both C pillars, and 1 front guard.
But I have run out of paint stripper, so will go buy some more tomorrow.

I found a big patch of bog in the right rear lower gaurd....way more than what needed to be there, it took away some of the original lines of the car.....pics to come
