I am going to strip all the existing paint off this car and repaint it in my driveway. I was wondering if any of you would be interested in a step by step thread as I go along? I will be using a chemical stripper to remove all the paint and then sand what it doesnt get. Any bondo in the car will be removed and I will take the dents out the way they should have been. Then I will shoot the car in an Epoxy primer and then block it and shoot it again and then a final block and paint a single stage bright yellow. Would you all be up for a progress thread? I figured I would post now and then create a new thread with the progress.

The last car I painted outdoors turned out great, but I did have a few choice words to say about one gnat in particular. I was under a carport and started early in the morning in hopes of avoiding bugs and breezes, but... along comes a giant gnat, lands right in the middle of the hood in the wet paint. Of course then they get stuck and struggle for their lives... it writhed and flapped and rolled and... Doh! I picked part of it out, but it left a track. Fortunately it buffed out pretty good.
