'67 El Camino - First attempt

[HandOverFist]

Passenger side blocked good this morning. I'll wait until the driver's side is done then spray one more coat followed by another blocking with 320 or 400 grit.

Done all I am going to do with the firewall other than paint...



Turned the hood over this morning for a little sanding session. You can see those mystery holes I have circled with some body filler oozing thru from underneath.



It did not take long to discover there are a string of holes on either side straight back from those two earlier discovered holes (four I believe). These were without question there from manufacturing...question is why. I havent a clue if this is the original hood or aftermarket. I'm leaning towards it being the original for no other reason than I found spots of white paint under the hood which was the original color of this El Camino.





Before beginning sanding on the tail gate I made one simple modification. The idea was stolen from a forum member who did the same.
