Well after about a month of block sanding (on spare time). I finaly decided to primer the car. Maybe one or two more months of more sanding i'll paint the car. Primering the car really have me some motivation of how the future will be, plan on painting it jet black. This is my first project car. so here are some pics.





If you keep sanding you might find something like this, lol



The future project in the back - 79 Camaro Z28

I can't wait to get my first coat of black primer down.
I've been blocking for months in spare time, too.
OK - lot's of little fiberglass repairs, too. I wish I wasn't so ****.
Looks good all one color

I'm getting used to the urban camo look (started sanding back in May):
