The next step in the body prep process is to apply the primer. The entire body has been sanded with 40 grit paper and etching primer was applied to the bare metal.
It is difficult to detect flaws in the body when it is so many different colors. The application of primer reveals the problem areas. Sanding the primer with a long sanding block (blocking) reveals even the slightest flaw.
Amazingly, this car's body is in terrific condition with only a few problem areas. Most of those areas are "parking lot dings".
Bill received the new steering wheel Wednesday and brought it to the shop today to make sure the adapter hub fit the steering column. It was a perfect fit.
Stay tuned...
