Figured I may as well make a start today. I'd forgotten what it felt like to have bleeding finger tips from several hours of wet rubbing, geez. Not only am I reliving the past in an astronomical sense, but 1970's pain as well lol! We never had an orbital for this kind of work back then, so I can't see any reason to start now...Might have to do a couple of banks & get me a set of Naglers now that I've got no finger prints


Already spent just over $100 on wet & dry, undercoat, Topcoat (Back to it's original white!

) rotary wire brushes, rust converter & assorted nick-nacks.
Hopefully the old man is watching, & approving. Afterall, he's the one that said "get stuck in, kid!" Which I interpreted years later as: "nothin' wrong with a bit of blood sweat & tears"

Well I ALMOST cried when I saw the state of the mirrors, and I've certainly lost some sweat & some blood.
