Just another Newbe

Hey guys, Ya I'm a new-be here and will be asking for help with the wife's 1978. I started stripping her down almost down almost done, taking it down to the glass. But still lots to do. It had bubbles and general adhesion problems large area just peeled off. I have never done a vette before so Please help a guy out or I will be in the dog house or living in the shop if I screw up.
