Kind of a boring update. Over the weekend I did a little more sanding and polishing. I knocked out the rear panel and the top edge of the rear 1/4.

My dad also got started on the trunk. We ordered some tools to replace the missing ones from the kit, and the holder for the tools since ours was cracked. He also pulled out the panels from the trunk, cleaned it well and put some rust encapsulator paint down. Not original, and there wasnt a lot of rust but this will keep it from rusting and it will be covered.

And one of the floor boards in the trunk was rotten so we pulled the elephant skin off and we are building a new one.

The updates may be slow or few and far between for the next few weeks. My wife and I are having our twins this weekend, so I may not have a ton of time to work on the car. My dad will still be plugging away though.
