I am going to have to re- do the interior parts of my Gremlin. Everything will have to be sanded down to get all the old rattle can paint off. There are places that when I painted..wasnt the cleanest and now there are these funny little "grease holes" in the paint. Of course back then I wasnt really into the car like I am now. So needless to say I have my work cut out for me. And ya wanna know somthing? I cant wait to get to work on it!! I got a new grille coming and I did find some headlight doors that will need some work also. Going to hit some "yard sales" and see if I can find an old dehydrator. I have a tendency to get ahead of myself when it comes to painting things and a quick way to dry things for me will sayve me. Not only time, but the good ol' finger prints and of course FRUSTRATIONS!! Thanks Doc... Bill Lewiston Id. Yahoo!
