Dave allways great to see what you love to do,and do well.

how do you deal with the surface rust that is on all the inside pannels???

thanks norm


A lot of these areas aren't as bad as the photos make them look. Inside the side cowl area where the Idaho shaped patch went, that's all red oxide primed from the factory. There is surface rust too, just not as horrible as the photos make it look. These areas will be either sanded clean or media blasted prior to a combination of etch prime and epoxy prime.

This car is sort of an odd duck, I say that because of all the band aid patch work that I am undoing. It would have been nice to have it all media blasted prior to my cutting and welding but this car has so many 2 ply sheet metal areas due to patch efforts in its past, media blasting wouldn't help me much.

I basically have to undo all that back yard bandaid work, fix the structure so the car is strong enough to put on a rotisserie, then I can come back in and media blast these areas.

(What ever little original metal is left that is)

Something clever here.
