This pile of bondo and paint dust came off about 1/4 of the car. I continue to diligently strip the shell with my angle grinder and 3m discs, but I'm gonna need more of them. I've already gone through 4 and I still have over half the car left to do.








Here's a picture of the rear quarter panel after a couple hours of work. There was much more body damage on the rear than I expected, so some new metal is going to need to be welded in there. I'm looking forward to receiving some of the repair panels I've ordered from Wolf Steel so I can weld them in. Until then, I've got plenty of paint and Bondo to strip. And hopefully next week the crank, head and block will be back from the machine shop so I can assemble the bottom end.
