I'm sure I'm not the only one to see rust in this spot. This is the intersection of the front trunk channel and the front cowl. I have the same issue on both sides. How have others repaired this?

Craig,
The blasting will be happening in the next couple of weeks. I decided to use Eastwood's biodegradeable stripper for most of the car and then use media stripping for selected areas. This way there was no chance of damage to the panels and you get somehwat better control of the mess. My brother is a body guy and has professionally restored a number of cars, a couple on the covers of hot rod magazines. He's offered to help with whatever I need including fabrication. He'll also be helping me with the paint in the spring. Just hoping for an easier fix on this portion. |
