You Can't Touch This...
Got a closer look at the mixed media blasted body today. No touching allowed of the bare metal. All of the surface rust I found while stripping the car down is gone. There were a couple of areas of concern which were opened up so they could be completely cleaned by the blasting: turn signals, valence, left rear quarter above wheel well. One other small spot popped up during the blasting on the right rear panel near the bumper mount hole. Media used was crushed glass, walnuts and plastic beads.
Factory brazing
Leaded seams exposed
Tempted to clear coat and move on...

Metal work beginning. Though there was a clean rear center section all ready to take the place of the dented one, the pulled and straigtened center looks fine and with more work being done to take every ripple out... well I think I'll put the clean section up for sale.
