Looks like you are on the right track with preparing the car. One thing, don’t do any underside painting or touch ups. Let the next owner do that. The BaT crowd will accuse you of covering up rust or repairs if they see new paint. The value in your car is its originality.

How many original paint longhoods with no rust remaining now? My guess is 5% or less.

Great article of the sills & 'B' post area- what a nightmare on that white car.

I'll take some pics tomorrow of my kidney bowls on both sides.
The door can't be opened the way the car is positioned tonight.

Appreciate yours & Matt's advice on not painting the bottom.
Thanks!
