Just a tip infamous. Take citristrip. Spray or lather on, and leave for 36 hours then take A Slice of aluminum and it comes off in sheets, then spray down and clean. Easiest way to strip to bare metal and paint. Takes way less physical time (besides letting it sit) to strip and clean.
Every one of these cars I’ve worked on had corrosion under the seam sealer located at the corner base of the windshield. Once removed, it is bare metal underneath there. This messy piece of seam sealer is hidden inside of the apron. Both sides.

Wow, thats pretty damn cool. I just recently started on the 89 I bought last year... I know a little bit about them, but watching and listening to your vids helps me better understand. I still have a lot to learn and hope to share with my 3 year old on our car.
It amazes me to this day all the corners ford cut when painting and prepping these cars. Like when a rough builder builds a home it’s rough, but that’s when the finish carpenter makes it pretty 🤦♂️ lol. Now I think they just dip the whole car and paint completely. Awesome work!
I finally found a mustang I'm gonna rebuild because it had been completely parted out but ii want to bring it back to life and have it back on road again
I found an 1988 mustang gt 5.0 convertible and ii have to basically start all over and rebuild it like you did the convertible you have that you called Flintstone floors 😅 but I've never done it before I'm 32 it would be my first rebuild but second project caus ii gave a truck im gonna paint as well But if ii get the mustang in a few weeks I'll be painting it as well after im through

It definitely takes a lot of time to do it right. There’s a lot of people who don’t understand that. Looking for to see it finished.
