Only a brief update for today:

Bodyguy was doing some last-minute touch-ups to the wetsanding when we arrived today. Seems he wasn't satisfied with one of the body lines on the drivers quarter, but as usual, he quickly resolved the issue.



The floors are done and sealed in DP90.





We finally removed the hood, fenders and doors for their final prep to get them ready to cut in.







More next weekend hopefully.

Back again with the (gloomy, oogie, rainy day) weekend update.

At long last, there is a little color on the car. Bodyguy got the bottom of the hood shot, but it hasn't been cleared yet.



The cowl and the door jambs have been mostly cut in, but they still need to be cleared as well.









Hopefully...<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">hopefully</span></span> this rust on the bottom of the drivers door will be the last to be dealt with on the car.



Bodyguy and I got the hinges off the doors so he could get them cleaned &amp; ready to rebuild. I also dropped off what should just about be the last of the &quot;small items&quot; we need to finish up the window moldings and some of the body trim.

On a closing note...

My Chevelle has a new stablemate at the body shop. Some here may recognize the car, but I'll let the owner fill in the details as they see fit.



More later.

Yes, it appears to be Donnie's L78.
