Looks like the engine and trunk compartments were media blasted and the body was soda blasted. looks nice.

I didn't take any pics of the underside, but it was media on the bottom, too. It looks awesome under there. I know that the car had a rough life, but I can't believe how clean and rust-free the floors and underside are.

Same as 1187, Troop B (Ocala instead of Lake City/Gainesville, though). However, it spent several years in Ohio, so I was a little concerned.

Good progress Mike, thanks for sharing. Media blasting can sure be the way to go on some of these old cars to ensure you end up with a solid foundation to build the final finish on.

The last 6 years in Ohio have been gentle on the car....... tucked away, clean, dry, and safe......

Quick update...

Car is in primer, still in Ohio. I will be picking it up in the next few weeks; as soon as I find a paint/body guy here.

I just got off of the phone with one of the Troopers who drove it in-service (a still-active, 33yr veteran) . He thinks that he has a picture of it somewhere, and he is also putting me in touch with the Trooper it was originally assigned to (who retired about 8 years ago).
