Well, I can't leave well enough alone, so I decided to hold an "Undercoating Removal " party and invited all my friends! Strangely, nobody showed up. I'm not sure if its because people hate to remove undercoating, or despite my idea of myself...I really don't have any friends
. But, just like my entire high school tenure, I didn't let that bother me.
Crusty being an undercoated car really helped save those floors. Luckily, no rot despite their rather crappy appearance. I mainly wanted to start documenting all of the factory overspray pattern from the rocker panels inward, as well as the dip gray primer. Under the driver's side, a sample of just about as mint as you can get 1970 FC7 In Violet!
I swept all that mass into a pile that was yyyeeeewge! So big in fact that for comparison and scale, I positioned a 426 Hemi I had laying around next to it, then got the ladder out to take an aerial shot. I'm telling ya! Yyyyyeeewwge!
Ok... maybe it's not that big, but it'll be doubley that big (doubley??
) after I get into the wheel wells and rear floor transition panel.
Pffffllpppp.... friends... who needs 'em!
Cheers
Dave
