Given this former Cali car is coming up on 50 years and probably not always taken good care of, I am lucky to have this level or rusting. I went after it with Ospho, wire brush and clean rinse. Will be applying POR 15 to this area. Question: my gut tells me the well adhered tar is sound and is not hiding any rusting. |

Well that’s a dismal view of the community. I think I’d go as high as 10-20% really striving to improve these cars.
FI going back on cars. Single carbs shunned Big bore (>2056) seem to be on the decline (vs the 80s & 90s) and recognized as the potential grenades they are. Suspensions being rebuilt with proper rubber bushings Cars being returned to factory colors and interiors being redone tastefully. RD offering a wide selection of replacement panels in Galvaneal. Wider variety of replacement body seals now available. More good going on than I think is being credited. |
