That looks great. This is really making me want to clean up ours.
How are you prepping the parts for paint? Strip tank? Sand blast?

Most parts are sandblasted, some more sensitive areas like transmission, engine, are wire wheeled, sanded, etc

Little more progress, the hood is definitely going to take some work to get it looking good. Picked up the new decals for the hood and a new battery today also. All fluids are changed and engine runs again after bleeding injectors

Looks good!

Any reason for the single jack stand in the front?

Would hate for you to bump it and have it fall

Only had the one under it so I could put the axle in it, it is sitting on 2 stands in the front now:thumbsup:

Getting close to being finished, not sure what happened to the hood, it had a 1/4" of bondo over most of it. I stripped it and left some of the small dents, looks a lot better than it did. Even had to rebuild the rusted out seat pan
