At this point I started doing as much disassembly as possible to save money before the shell went to media blasting, metal work and paint and body.

For ****s and giggles, I grabbed my torch and loaded a fresh razor blade into the holder and got to work.

My technique which will probably make the body experts like Jonny Jim cringe, I would heat the paint in a section with the torch (not so hot as to bubble the paint but just soften it) and then use the razor blade to peel the paint.

This worked exceptionally well, didn't warp any panels and took off 2 paint jobs worth of paint on the rear quarter in about 20 minutes.

This afternoon of work revealed rust free, accident free rear quarters and deck lid.
