I sold the dart last week ( well I hope anyhow, I took a large deposit on it ) So I decided that Friday afternoon it was time to start disassembling the coronet. It is going to get soda blasted on Monday ...

yes ... i need to make 2 small patches in the trunk and 1 small patch on the pass front fender where rocker molding rubbed the paint off and let the fender rust through ... a 6 inch by 6 inch piece of steel will be more than enough to do all the repairs ... well until I mini tub this puppy
