Stripped and to the blaster tomorrow.

One more day to completely strip 06450.

After 5 days the car is almost all apart. With the engine out today the car went on a rotisserie where the final bits and pieces will be removed prior to media blasting.

Hoping to the car stripped in one more week, then off to the media blaster.

Today marked the start of the restoration of 06450 an all original “Chairs and Flares” 246 GTS. I set up an additional camera to capture taking it apart in a lime lapse video.

Now that the car is in the shop I took a better look at what I have to work with.

I drove from San Diego to Oakland to pick up a new project, an original Dino GTS Flares and Chairs still in it’s original paint. The previous owners owner and regularly drove “Dino” for 34 years and said goodbye today!! I brought it to my shop to begin a total nuts and bolts, rotisserie restoration. The new owner’s 14 year old son did all the research and recommended to his Dad to buy this one. A great choice being a rare flares and chairs car with all books and tools and in original condition.
