So after a few helpful (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/alfred.gif) from members this past week, I've started dealing with the rust on my '75.
I'm sure, as some have said, that this will turn into a complete resto (read: obsession), but I'm starting with the small stuff, and hoping to take what I learn from that into the bigger parts of the project. I took a bunch of 'before' pictures, which I'll try to post at some point, maybe a blog... First up, the trunks. Pictures are easier than a full description, so here you go: The red sled...

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) Yikes! So all of that whitish sealer needs to be ground out too? What do you use to replace the sealer after the metal is all cleaned & treated? And do you replace the sealer after the POR-15 and before final paint? Rick: He's a great helper. Loves to get his little hands dirty and turn those wrenches. Also great for fetching beer and pretzels! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif) Now if I could just get him to do his homework... Thanks everyone for the tips! I think she's taken her last drive for a while, so it'll be shop-vac and heat lamp for me tomorrow. Maybe a trip to Home Depot to look at welders... |
