I noticed you are using a long Dura-Block to wetsand.
Are you using sticky back paper? If so, what brand are you using & what grit are you using?
I ask because some sticky backs don't hold up to wet sanding.
Thanks
I bought a dura block set

Someone from the Mint Green Team PLEASE send John one of those "Mint" tee shirts like in post #35!! The man is ON A MISSION!! ("On a mission from God" .. Blue Brothers).

Hey John, have you seen that other thread asking about the door plugs underneath each door?

https://rennlist.com/forums/964-foru...r-edition.html

They are talking about the serial #'s stamped in the rear section of each door metal. Have you checked yours (just for giggles)??

Keep up the great progress John. We all CAN'T WAIT to see it back in all it's Minty Green Jean Glory!!

You can see inside the circle con the top picture the rusty area I found when I removed the passenger side front fender makes me sad in some ways but dam happy it is a small area should be an easy fix

Default Back on Talia

I got the flu earlier this year and got lazy. Felling better now So back to working on Talia with the help of my grandson we pulled the left side front fender and also the spoiler. I found rust in the same spot on the left side as I did on the right side still not bad and should be easily fixed

Thanks I have to say it is a nightmare removing the old sealant from the window channels. Nothing chemically would soften or remove the crap so scrape and sand and etching primer
