Re: It's white, finally
Stopped by the shop today. The paint is still curing. He is waiting til Monday to start the 1000 grit sanding, and then spray the final white coats on it. Then, some more cure time and color sand/polishing.
The lower body lines came out very well. The line runs from the front fender all the way to the rear and is a very subtle scalloped body line that usually gets lost in the bodywork process and becomes a slab sided look.

Re: It's white, finally
1000 grit then more paint? I've never used that technique myself but I'm by no means an expert. I am always leary painting over any scratch finer than 600 grit, even on fresh paint.

Re: It's white, finally
Sanding was finished the other day and the last coats of white were sprayed. Now she sits another few days until she's ready for color sanding and polishing.

Home at last...
Picked up the body today. Now comes the cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning. Then the first major component is the headliner, so I can then get the front and rear glass installed. Then door guts, windows, interior....
 Does anyone have one of these second gen F-body door handle links? It think they are the same for left and right sides from 70 to 81. I need one since it is now missing from my parts pile.

Re: Home at last...
