First move...

With the car in the workshop, the crew who are going to restore it, are making a rough storyboard of how they are going to attack it...

The car will undergo a very complex amount of work, so there will be plenty of time to alter the plans, but as the workshop has several cars through their hands, I´m very confident that they know how to.

The body of the car are made out of aluminum panels, handbeaten and put together by very skilled coachbuilders by hand, and I´m very impressed by the thin layer of filler and and paint that where applied to the car back in 1964, it´s super thin, todays paintshops could really learn a lesson or two...

Back to the paint, because of the alumimun, most of the paint must come of chemical, not dipping but with paintremover, and this is not every paintremover that are suitable, it´s very important that the brand used not containing Methynclorid, because it will attack the aluminum.

I put a 3 liter bucket with paintremover from Rust-Oleum for the workshop to use, and they allready made a small trial area just to see how it reacts to the paint.

Please notice the layers of filler, paint and aluminum.
