1970 Plymouth Roadrunner (Tennessee Screwjob) PT 2

 After soaking the parts in brake cleaner for about an hour, it slowly started to make the paint tacky, to where it was stick against the basin. After a few hours, took a toothbrush to the body. The paint in some areas started rubbing off. 



After another hour so so, scrubbing and soaking, I dumped the parts into a bucket of warm soapy water.Took the toothbrush and continued scrubbing. The bottom portion where the paint ran was the worse. Had to resoak the body for another half hour. Finally pulled it, washed it off in the soapy water and dried it off. Let it ser for a few hours while some chores got done.






Took the parts to the sink. Laterhered them up with some Dawn soap and began wet sanding with 800 grit paper. After about 30 minutes of sanding, using toothpicks in the crevices, it's about as clean as it will get.




Going to look for either a flat white or flat yellow primer. Think I am going to switch from the Chrome Yellow to a Lemon Yellow. 


Up next: PT 3 - new body paint or junkyard?
