well you will wind up with a pile of parts no mater what ,just depends on how organized the pile can be kept.i would remove the easy parts first ,doors ,fenders ,glass ,interior. then pull the motor and trany .you should primer as soon as possible after blasting it will rust quicklySo what is the best method for stripping, sandblasting, and restoring? Should I start with simple, easily removable items like trunk lid, doors, hood, etc, and then work my way up to quarter panels, fenders, and remove motor\tranny? Just trying to plan this process without turning my car into a pile of parts. What is typical with this level of restoration? Also, after sandblasting I would assume it would be best to immediately apply a primer right? Any recommendations?
