Well we pick up our story already in progress but I hope that by forcing myself to post some pictures I will be motivated to keep going.
I bought the car may years ago and have yet to truely enjoy it. I have started to restore it several times and always get distracted but this weekend the baby (and his mother) is out of town and we have a three day weekend so lets see how far I can get. Here is where we are starting this morning. |

Inside the longs, I use zinc paint to act as a sacrificial anode to prevent rust, and then top the paint with cavity wax (aka Cosmoline). Cavity wax never really hardens other than on the exterior surface, is waterproof, and contains rust inhibitors.
