Started the cut and buff on the main body. Looks great for being done in a make shift both. I use the 3 step 3M product for this process
Color sand 1200 then 2000 and final 3000. Buffs easy. There are many different thoughts on the cut and buff process. Just do what works best for you. The whole body work and paint process can be done in you are patient and follow the basics. The end result can be as good many shops

Also been getting the rear end housing ready. I pressure washed it and documented the markings. Not planning on duplication however if I decide too I could.
Mainly sharing this for reference if any one needs it for their restoration
