Hey fellow rotary-heads. I have been doing some work on the Rex. The side mouldings have been removed and I have began removing and repainting all of the trim Pieces. Around the windshield, the rear hatch hinges, and masking off the doors and repainting the black upper half. Here is a half-way decent picture or two that I snapped while workin today. I am still lookin for some side trim pieces around the windshield..if anyone has em let me know, the last guy hasn't been responding now.

Oooh, shiny. Nicely done, I like that. Are you considering filling in the body lines?

 

Have not thought of it, however now that you mention it no. I want this car to be all metal no bondo. And I don't really want to weld in the smoothness

On a stock body it looks better with the lines. Widebody on the other hand, well its a personal preference thing.

 

Are you refeering to the A-pillar trim pieces?

 

Outside A-pillar pieces which run along the side of the windshield. Paint condition of no matter since I will repaint it anyways. PM me if you have them available Doc.

how did you get the goop off that held the moldings on?

 

Combination of a heat gun, 3M adheasive remover. Came down to the only way to do it was with a razor blade. No scratches in the paint what so ever if you got the finesse in your fingers!
