TR6 TR6 dismantling ?

I am in the process of tearing my TR6 apart for a frame off restoration. As I was tearing out the dash and wiring harness I couldn't imagine how to get in and media blast/paint the area that houses the wiper armatures/air intake.

Luckily there does not appear to be any rust in there, so without cutting sheet metal, what is the best way to deal with that area?

Also, I am going to take the fenders off this weekend, any suggestions?

Hopefully the body will be off the frame next week.

Thanks
 
I dismantled my six completely for its restoration. Removing the body wings (fenders) is a snap. Just remember to get all the bolts, along the top edge, the bottom rocker and the vertical mounting just fore and aft of the door opening. It might be a little sticky during removal because there is body joint compound between the inner and outer fender panels.
