Re: Chevelle updates
Only a brief update for now;
Bodyguy had some other issues to tackle this week aside from the Chevelle, and he has also been flying solo for the last week as Bodyguy #2 has been out of state for his job and won't be back in town for a couple more weeks. As such, the doors, fenders, decklid & hood haven't came back off yet (2 person jobs)--more on that in a moment though. Some of the interior prep work is now in process, and the jambs have been partially stripped.   Bodyguy asked me to stop back either Tuesday or Wednesday to help him get the panels back off of the car, so hopefully there will be another update in the next week or so. More later.

Re: Chevelle updates
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.

Re: Chevelle updates
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 & ready to rebuild. I also dropped off what should just about be the last of the "small items" 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.
