Today Was THE Day

Weather cleared, car moved and all logistics scheduled. No small feat with the winter we had in PA.
Had the BE soda blasted today, but was not overly impressed. It did a good job on the "top" coats!! It would not remove an epoxy undercoat so we had to glass bead blast the rest to bare metal. The good news was the car looks really solid even more then anticipated. Next step is clean off, and start the body work. Can't tell you all how excited I was today. Feels like real progress after all the bolt breakin' and disassembly. But it was all worth it today.
Thank heaven for warm sunny days and the pending spring weather.
