Lumber Wagon Version VII

Don't try this at home,at least not with a knife that is too sharp.

Got the Corona rollers on.
Got the rocker trim off.
Rockers sanded where smooth and burgundy scuffed lower where they are textured with Dilute detergent and water.
Wet sanded the body again with 600.
Put some POR metal ready on the bare spots to start burning the rust out of the pores,and pits.

Notice the spots of tape over the trim holes to keep the water out of the dead end cavities in front of the rear wheels.
It's really pretty straight,and other than the professionally replaced passenger side rear quarter panel & rear door there is no evidence of collision damage.

Door opening windlace is removed and labeled to speed reassembly.
Some high solids industrial 2 part brushing epoxy for areas that are hard to spray,and won't be seen.

i suggest you get a custom license plate for it when you're done. since it'll be the work horse, i say WOODWAGN or GOTWOOD.

Detergent and burgundy [extra fine] scotch pad scuff on the radiator support,and yoke.

Busted the crapter-market replacement windshield prying against the glass to get the trim off.
No great loss it had a big rock star just below the line of vision, and the tinted section at the top had faded.
