Ate some more dust today, too hot. I'm done for today, four hours is enough. Borrowed a friend's stud gun/dent puller and fixed two small dents. In the process of removing more primer and filler - I found several more areas that need attention.

I had good intentions today, but was hampered by equipment failure after only a few hours. My pad that the stripping discs stick to came apart. Oh well... there's always Friday. (My next day off)

I found more filler where it wasn't needed around the rear window. The guy obviously didn't understand that certain areas of these cars are round and concaved from the factory.

Car has just been sitting in the garage these days. Not been able to get it out much. Might be time to think about selling it, and let someone else enjoy it.

She's pretty much naked now, every place the grinder will fit is down to bare metal. Already started to fill and block the deck lid and passenger side quarter panel.
