72 TA : New Project

[njsteve]

The one interesting thing I have noticed after the hours spent under this car, is that it appears that the factory undercoated the cars PRIOR to painting them. If you look at the wheelwell shots you can see the areas where the undercoating has chipped away: you see red primer and not white body color. (See the photo of the rear frame rail with the big red section where a large piece of stray undercoating fell off during the cleaning process)

So I guess if you are correctly restoring one of these 2nd generation F-body cars, the wheel wells should have body color overspray on top of the black undercoating (rather ugly in my opinion).
