Hi Vince, no secrets here. Yes, it's down to the bones. Frame off, nut & bolt as they say. Media blasting done, now in primer. Body is in great shape, no dents or waves, very, very little rust. Body man says final bill will be lower than estimate, don't get that kind of news often. With at least 5 re-sprays, that I could see, massive paint cracking, waves on all panels, etc, and my son had it for may years, (high school, collage, and apartment parking lots) I was really worried, so was body man. I got lucky. Lee
