The interior is painted

After a bunch of wiping, cleaning, taping, and Scotchbriting, I got a chance to paint the interior this weekend.  The OG paint is very difficult to stick to.  I remember this from 35 years ago when I was working with my Dad in the body shop.  It always required an extra bunch of work to get the paint to lay down nicely.  I probably should have sealed it before I painted, but the OG paint really just needed to be freshened up, it wasn’t very rusty, or damaged.  It seems to have come out pretty nicely.  I won’t know till tonight, how much paint got under my masking job and got all over the dash.  I am sure there will be some re-work required there.
