Have the car pushed to back of the garage now, and curtains of plastic hanging to keep from covering everything in red dust. Done a bit more sanding and took off a door panel to see what lurked behind it.

Wow. . .4 months gone by already since I got the car and I have made little progress. But. . .school is over now and I'm a free man for awhile. Hopefully things will start looking up now.

No updates for a few weeks now. Been too busy with school to do any work on the Nova. Borrowed some car dollies from my dad to put the nova on so I can move it around the garage easily to give me some more room. Just a few more weeks until this semester is over then I'll have some free time.

Now that I have something real to work with, things may go a bit faster.

Slowly but surely, metal comes shining through. I don't think this is the first time this has been worked on. Describing this as thick may be an understatement. Layer after layer after layer . . .

Ok, the vinyl top is off. Lots of adhesive stuck still, and signs of rust. Even a hole rusted through. It would seem the Nova was YELLOW in the beginning. . .how sad. Somewhere under all of that there is nice and shiny metal. Looks like a great place for a wasp nest.

Ok, here is a before picture. It doesn't look too bad from a distance. Definitely some rust here and there. The vinyl top is going to be a pain. Almost afraid to see what's underneath. And I do hope this is the only dead 'critter' that I find in it.
