Fender damage, going to have the body shop check if the chassis is even straight.
Soda Blaster guy is going to pick up the car Monday.
Peace

Dude, the first word out of his mouth after seeing that fender..."Gay!"
Well got more of the car apart, found 7 dolla in change, mostly pennies. Half of them embedded in the sound deadening or cough drop syrup. Found a few grapes and the carpet was wet with what must be 9 year old water. ewww
Dad is formally forbidden to have cough drops or grapes in the car as of now. Will get new carpet from the GB going on, will get black.
Okay pics:
Even without the motor the 7's got POWA!
What the back of the dash looks like and the HVAC unit, which is pretty simple.
Long *** engine harness that weighs 30 lbs.
And last, the yummy stuff found under the carpet.

Update, got the car back from the soda blaster. He did a pretty good job, missed a few things but all in all a good job.
Prep and bondo now
Speaking of bondo, I have some unexpected bondo on the driver side rear corner panel. I knew about the bondo on the passenger door. Remove and clean up for new stuff. Hoping the DR rear panel isn't fawked up too bad. Will find out tomorrow

Hey Apex just told me he wants to know where you got that cool green fender.After what Mike did to his car he's thinking a bright green will be more obvious to see when someone is backing up a Suburban.I think he is looking for a custom pink interior also to match his panties also

Sorry for the thread jack
Now back on subject- so what color are you going to get it painted ? Are you going to have it done by the 19th for the next track day or are you and Apex going to share his car ? Hows the motor rebuild coming along

I thinking either Gunmetal or Titanium Metallic Silver with a heavy metal flake content and blue pearl clear coat. I leaning more toward's Titanium grey from the RX-8/Mazda 6 and add more metal flake and just regular clear.
NOOOO, at the rate I'm going it's going to take forever it feels like. I need to get the ball rolling or have the car rolled over to the paint shop across the street to get it done in a reasonable time. Expensive though, Fawk!
We have to get Apex's car running properly first, still has a boost issue and a miner scratch on the driver side fender to fix.

Well found more bondo on the driver & passenger side under paneling. Did some more paint removal, two more days of this and a frame straightening and it will be ready for new bondo and primer/sealer.
I found out my car has a cocaine problem! see's be off of it by the time I'm done, I hope.
