looks like a good project and a very good car to build up. im not sure if this will help with your 6 but it did with my engine swap - to make it easier to get the motor in/out i cut out the metal infront of where the radiator is and made it into a bolt in panel. it depends how many times you'll have it in and out of course though...

Here are some new pictures. Not the best quality. I am in the process of removing all the old paint from the bodyshell. Most part of it is now down to bare metal, also the underside of the car. Then I start welding in some new panels. I am going to change the forward section of the inner wing on both sides in the front, complete frontpanel, complete back panel and rear lower quarterpanel on both sides.

wow. nice. what did you use to strip the car?

Posted: **Mon Dec 07, 2009 10:47 pm**

I am using a eletrical scraper to remove the undersealant, and a orbital sander to remove the paint. I finish off with sand blasting.

Interesting. The answer to everyone's underseal scraping nightmares...
