Been busy welding up all the extra holes. Won't be using the old heater core holes, so beaux312 came by and did most of the welding on the firewall. Some had drill "alot" of extra holes in the firewall and floor. Welded up all those holes up and the ones we won't be using. Also got most of the old seam sealer out. Should start sandblasting soon.......

Got a little more done today. Finished removing all of the old bedliner with paint stripper. Next week will start sand blasting the tub.

Also found pictures of this Bronco in another thread when it was owned in Mississippi Broncos post #50. Here is some pictures of the guide coat before sanding.

He is still undecided on the color. He started wanting a med blue metallic to a grayish blue and now talking about a satin charcoal. I told him had a little longer to make up his mind so we'll see..........
