How I spent Father's Day. First off, I have never done any auto painting before, but I did spent the night at a Holiday Inn Select before, therefore, I felt I was qualified to attempt this.
I spent Father's Day working on the 'burnt' 914. I have been working on the rear trunk and rear fenders, cleaning, derusting and basically trying to figure out how to be a body man. I have been working on this portion of the car since Feb 28, unfortunately I didn't have a compressor to paint the exposed metal. So, every weekend I would do more removal of the rust and redo the 'flash' rust from the previous repair work. I did use Opsho, but there was still some rust bleeding through. I finally bought a compressor and today I painted. This is the pic of the driver side after the fender was removed. There was alot of rust underneath. I have done some patch welding and minimal bondo. Attached image(s)
