More progress, I spent a few hours preparing the firewall for eventually paint.

The whole cowl and firewall is perfect:-) on the sides of the cowl I cleaned off the black coating and there is the original glade green paint:-)

Pull the wiper arms, pull the lower windshield trim and the cowl seal and wire mesh.
Scuff, prep and paint the top of the entire cowl....you are right there, it only makes sense.
Then you will be complete, just as I recommended you do a year ago :-)

Wow, did your car clean up nice. That looks like a very clean car.

I spent a few more hours cleaning under the car.

More nooks and crannies.

I am having a hard time finding how good is good enough..... I know how much of this will show later..... but I love the idea of making it really nice underneath, and someday it can be really nice on top:-)

Keep cleaning until you are satisfied.. Then go over it one more time. When doing prep work you can never do too much..

Sounds about right.

I am not close to ready for a the final once over but getting closer each day:-)
