Got the firewall with the first coat of primer on it and does not need too much to get it ready for some medium blue paint. firewalls are not my favorite thing to work on because they just have really weird shapes and are usually filthy from years of housing the motor and road grime. Anyway, I am sure it will look great after the paint goes on.

Also was able to strip the other fender on the drinker's side. It also took about twenty to twenty-five minutes with the Eastwood SCT tool and an 80-grit drum on it. The drinker side fender also was in great shape with no rust and just a few surface dings. The captain side fender and also no rust, a few dings and a dent just above and forward of the marker light, but not to the end where the fender body line is. I pounded that out as much as possible with a hammer and dolly-off method. That just about got it, but not quite there. Pulled out the stud gun and put three studs in the middle of the low spots and worked them with the Steck Stud lever. That did the trick and finished up with a little slapping spoon. The Steck Stud lever has been a game-changer tool for me on working dents. It allows for adjusting the fulcrum and how much pressure you can ease out the dent, and if there is some spring back you can keep going.

Now these fenders are pretty close to getting epoxy primer next with the core support and inner fenders. More to come on that process.
