Don,

Your pictures are causing me flashbacks. It looks like a body on restoration, nothing wrong with that.

A couple of questions; isn't media blasting supposed to take everything down to bare metal? You said a number of panels needed replacement, from what I can see , while some are a little beat up they all appear workable, which ones are you replacing?

In my experience if you can repair an original panel it's preferable to a replacement when it comes to fit. For example, if you can repair the rear fenders in place you'll be money ahead, removing them is quite an adventure!
