I started disassembly a couple of weekends ago and I had some things to show for it. I had bloody knuckles from parts that didn't want to come loose, and after the first day of stripping the car down, I knew this project was going to take a lot longer than I first anticipated. But there's also some good news!

To be able to restore a car, you need a workshop, preferable a large garage where you have all the room and tools in the world. I had neither.

After getting the car home, I wanted to see what's underneath the layers of dust the car gathered by standing in a dusty barn for 19 years.
