Decided to strip it and paint it white and speckle black on it

Re-Ranch is the chosen product for the pro and amateur re-finisher, but its not about product, its about preparation, 90% of a paint job is about careful preparation, sanding, priming, colour sanding, filling, priming, colour sanding and finally buffing before putting the finish coat on. Practice on a scrap of plywood before you hit the TBird and good luck, any probs, gimme a shout

Agreed. A series of photos from start to finish would be awesome.

Alright will do guys! It won't be until spring though. It's 50 degrees for 2 days then it drops to -15 the next. That's what happened Friday through-tonight. So if you can't tell I can't dry it anywhere
