Day 25 - More paint stripping

Mike spent a few hours in the garage today. He managed to get a bit done. He spent most of the time stripping paint. He got the Drivers side Door Jamb stripped.

He then moved to the trunk and removed the trailer towing bracket. Sad to think my car use to tow a trailer. Anyways he had to cut the bolts to get it removed. As you can tell, the metal fractured where the bracket was. So that will have to be welded.
He then stripped the tail light panel

As you can see in this next picture, it looks like swiss cheese on the passenger side tail light. So they will have to graft in some metal there.

Progress is slowly being made. It really makes me happy to see such progress. My car sat on the back burner for so long. I am also so grateful for my sweet husband for getting out there and doing this restoration. He is incredible!!
