Eastwoods Dura blocks are pretty nice, and I almost got a set after seeing how they do.
I see they are on sale right now.
Dura-Block 7 Piece Sanding Blocks - DuraBlock - Automotive Sanding Block - Body Hammers Sanding Block

They also have some for the curves in the body, like on the fender tops between the sides and the glass and roof but I used pipe insulation tubing with sticky backed sanding paper wrapped around it and it worked perfect.

Dura-Blocks are awesome. I really like the round block and also the long one. There is a 6 piece set without the long block and a 7 piece set with the long block. Check eBay for better prices.

You will also need a soft block for color sanding but I'm not sure which of those is best.
