Passenger side – sound deadening material

Started putting on the trim/bumpers etc.. I have replacement hood hinges to install that will actually hold the hood up and I see that I need to adjust the drivers door at least an inch.

Even if it is a nice black epoxy primer…

I ordered a patch panel for the only rust on this car which was the passenger quarter behind the wheel.  The patch panel was ordered in August of 2017 but was consistently backordered.  It arrived today… which is November 24, 2018.  15 months after placing the order, it shows up..I’m glad.

The vents are going to be a challenge, but the rest of the cowl and A-pillars are stripped.

Picked up some more chemical stripper and now the hood is done.  The cowl and both rockers are what’s left to strip.

Ran out of stripper on the hood… need another trip to O’Reilleys.  A little time lapse

The rear valance is a mess… lots of body filler and it’s very mis-shaped.  But it’s stripped.

Drivers side quarter sail panel.  Evidence of a replaced quarter panel in it’s life.
