Spring driving in Massachusetts is a few months away. So I decided to remove the motor and fix the hell-hole rust. I could be in way over my head. Here's what I've done so far. (several pics to follow) Can you guys show me exactly what I need to do next? How much more should I cut out? How much surface rust do I need to grind away? Some of hell-hole repair pictures I've seen posted show shiny metal on the longs and inner fender. I don't think I could every get mine like that. Attached thumbnail(s)
