Rather than further hijack Phil's thread, and without clogging up the restoration forum (this isn't particularly edifying), thought i'd share my progress on stripping down. I haven't been able to do anything for a couple of months due to other commitments, so I was really pleased to get a day on the car yesterday. The entire passenger side is stripped out now. Only a couple of rust spots, the worst is one of the seat mounting points - if not for the flash creating a shadow you could see the garage floor.
I have one problem - three of the door hinge bolts are stuck solid (the ones into the boxed section inside the door). I took to them with an impact driver at great risk to the door skin, but didn't even budge them. They have been painted over so I assume that is at least part of the problem. Any tips?
Starting to get quite caught up in it now that this is getting down to the business end.
