      Lead Paint

      I started stripping the (Original) paint off the firewall of my 1962 Chevy 2. I used paint remover / scrapper, but for the hard to reach places, etc., I'm planning on using a die grinder fitted with a wire brush. I did it for about 10-15 minutes, and it was working pretty good. I was telling a co-worker about it and he asked if Chevy used lead in their automotive paint. I do not have a clue what they used back in the 60's. Hell, for all I know they could have used asbetos or some other toxic junk..

      Anyone know if they did / should I (do I really need to) use a respirator for this?
