Small update:
Mobile blaster came by this week to blast a few parts. It was a pretty sweet set up, wished I had gotten a picture. It was a dustless blaster that used cool water to keep the panel temperature down. The kid did a pretty good job. The hood has a little bit of oil canning, but that was there before he blasted it. I'll continue with the body work on both hoods. Leaning towards cowl at this point.
The sandblast finish really brings a panel back to life. I shot everything with some epoxy primer quickly to prevent that clean metal from flash rust.
Also, like TA mentioned earlier, started to shave front bumper. It takes a bit of time to cut those heads off!
The front tubs were really the only things that required a few minor patches. I'll also have to clean up the core support below the battery tray. There are a few pin holes.
