Beautiful car, you are fortunate to have found it. Look for rust near the wheel wells since I see some rust on the bolts. It is fairly inexpensive to have the bolts, nuts and washers replated while you are freshing up the suspension. I used Eibach springs and energy suspensions parts on my 72z which worked out very well.

Bob, I don't think you went through the entire thread This car now has zero rust and almost all the bolts have been or are being re-plated or replaced. The car also has Eibachs and Tokicos. My dad and I are very excited to see his baby all finished.

Here she is after being buffed out. It should come home for re-assembly any day now. This is really exciting!! I know my dad feels like he is 5 years old on Christmas eve

(note: the engine bay and suspension aren't really covered in overspray, there is a special coating that was applied prior to paint that will wash away along with all the dust/overspray once hosed down.)

Man every time you add more to this, the happier I am deciding to back to factory color on my car of #920. Ya it's a 70's only color but hey it's a good 70's color

Sorry for the double, what is the product they put on the car to prevent over spray?

AJM.......I'll check with Chuck and let you know. Safari Gold is really growing on me....can't wait to put the new Panasports and front BRE spoiler on. You're right Brandon.....I can feel it now!

Buffing is done and now the car is being put back together.

Love the color. I am sort of jealous, My car was not a restoration, more of kill the rust and make it look presentable.

I think the Safari gold with Panasports is a great idea! It's looking good Guy. I love it .
