So now that all the welding is done, off with
the ''paint''!
June 13th, 2006. Finally Stripping has Commenced!
PAINT stripping, that is. I mostly used the DA (duel action sander--not
the district attorney). I did use some paint stripper on the rear
of the car. Both methods seemed to take forever...I used a hammer
and dolly to hammer out dents along the way.
And after WEEKS and weeks of sanding,
I found its birthday suit. 1962 suit. Pretty valuable suit.
A stud welder was used to pull
dents that couldn't be reached from the backside.
The stud welder is the orange tool in the above photo (and the
guy from page 5).
That only took about 3 weeks! Did
it take you that long to scroll through this page?
The next
porsche restoration page is the
final
straightening before paint...
