Sorry, I have pretty quiet lately. I’m dealing with some tough stuff. Anyway, I have been priming and block sanding the last week. The doors and tailgate patches are done and look good. I’m moving slowly though this stage so I don’t kick myself later for not moving slow through this stage

Again some great progress

Same floorboard rusty areas as many others. These patches are so common, I will be making these as part of my panel collection for future vehicles.

You clearly don't need advice from me but in those last 2 pics, if it's your goal to remove that tar insulation go pick up some dry ice.
I removed mine just a week ago. Dry ice and a rubber mallet made it pop off surprisingly fast.

Brilliant!!!!! Why didn’t you mention this a year ago?

3 coats urethane primer on the whole vehicle. More block sanding ahead.

Working on the floor and other patches. After the rusty parts were removed.

After sand blasting. I soaked all the bare metal areas with zinc phosphate and started welding new pieces on.

Finishing up the valance and tailgate now, and some other little imperfections.
