the last pic is just another coat of stripper around the edges,,, it is better to remove all the paint with the stripper so you dont damage the aluminum with sanders the hood will distort very easy with machines heating it up,,, So the last step is to use a scotch brite with some water and nuetralize the stripper and clean off the hood,,,
now we are on our way to a new finish,,,,,, the next segment will be removing the trim from the doors and the wiring for the mirrors....
