Brad Allen has the right idea. I also clean prime,paint and clean as I disassemble. That way when I get frustrated and tired I can look at what I've already accomplished and I feel better. Just take it one piece/project itema at a time and it will amaze you how it will come together. Many folks here have tackle what seemed like some hopeless projects only to make a real jewel out of them. I just hope my panel turns out like that

Oh, welcome to the bolt. This is the best home away from home a man could ask for. LOTS of good guys and good help here.
Good luck, keep us posted and don't forget we like pictures.
