I hacked into my parts car to gain an even clearer view of the world inside the long. I'm here to share my pictures. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
Here's how I hacked in. I wouldn't recommend this tactic on a real project, but I just wanted to get inside without losing the shape and perspective of things. I just took a hack saw and cut into the top of the long and then drilled out all the spot welds along the top. Attached image(s) |

Here's the long without the tube. Notice how little rust there is. What little rust there is in the bottom was caused by the hell hole letting water in. This is proof that a well maintained car will not rust. In other words, breaking into your longs to paint/POR-15/zinc coat the surface is not necessary.
