More progress. Paint very soon now!

The work is progressing on the body. Paint soon!

The engine block was totally stripped and is in the process of repainting.

I haven’t put much up on the site lately, but work is progressing. The body is getting smoother every day and getting close to paint. The engine parts have all been cleaned, painted and all the new parts are in my possession now. I plan on reassembly of the engine after my trip to Italy in mid November. A few pictures of the progress.

Some more pictures to bring the progress to current. I have about 30 days to decide between azzuro and grigio ferro.

This car appeared to have 3 different paint jobs, yellow (original), red (repaint) and black. It had never been taken down to bare metal only bondoed over. The rust was in damaged areas that were never fixed correctly. Like they say, paint can hide a multitude of sins. This car is on it’s way to being better than new.

I’ve been a little busy lately, but work is progressing. I started sorting and cleaning engine parts and ordering various new parts. The body is moving along at a better pace then my work. All the metal work is done and the resurfacing has started.
