I put the car up on the rotisserie this weekend so next weekend I can start working on the underneath of the car.


Well I think this weekend I finally got the last of it - the old battery tray area.
Also got the porta power to push out the front shock towers so I can fit the monte carlo and export braces.
Some more work on the rear quarter panel joins and trunk area.




Got a wee bit more done this weekend… the quarter joins are very time consuming because my “bogging” is not great, so takes me a few more layers and more sanding than it would with someone who knows what they are doing.
Also repaired the front drip rail on the drivers side which was rusted through. Some seam sealer inside it should finish it off, and possibly a little filler underneath.
Cleaned up the trunk and started to prime it, but ran out of pressure pack etch primer, so might have to fire up the compressor and finish it off with the gun. I plan to paint the whole lot with the black POR-15 paint that I used for the floors.
Also sat the right front quarter back in place after spraying body deadner inside it.
Started to prep the bodywork this weekend. Took the roof and right quarter back to bare metal, then sealed with etch primer.
Also started work on the rear quarter joins, but still need work on those. Plenty of sanding needing done.
