      Probably needed to access the interior for more cleaning or reassembly, with lift posts in the way you can't do that as the door hits. Y'all always think you're smarter than everyone when missing key elements...

    Nice...As many bays that you guys' re-paint I'm surprised y'all haven't invested in a bead blaster yet. You could dedicate a corner of the back "storage" space and build a cheap 2x wooden frame room and staple heavy-duty plastic for the walls & false ceiling. The good thing about glass or plastic bead mediums is that you can strain/filter it and re-use it and it's nonabrasive to metal. The booth could also be used for Spoon's small priming/painting jobs and not have to haul the cars home.

    From seeing what’s going on with your rear end from a previous video I would say the preload on the pinion gear is your issue it’s binding on the ring gear I’ve had it happen on a few straight axles where it’s fine in reverse but feels like your hitting a brick wall going forward I would take off your rear diff cover and watch the gears as you try to move it forward if you see your pinion gear have any play your preload is off or you need new bearings

    After you remove rust on cars without galvanized steel, use bluing chemicals used in firearms. It will rust proof at metal level. There are different methods, rust bluing is best, and hardest on large parts since you have to rust the surface and boil it before wire wheel or 0000 steel wool, multiple times.
