Quoted from Trebor I hope so, as I put away all parts in boxes from other cars. Hopefully this will prompt me to sort through all my parts and get rid of some stuff I will never use ![]() ![]() 1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...) 1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a.

Quoted from Sheepy Not 100% sure yet but leaning towards thermal paint removal (pyrolysis) and shot blasting for rust removal. Have some reservations with chemical/acid paint removal after the problems with the DHC ![]() ![]() 1976 TR7 FHC (currently undergoing some TLC ...) 1980 TR7 DHC (a.k.a.
