Frame cleaned up & painted
Thought I was done with rust repair, but not the case. forward trunk body mounts(both sides)needed some attention
then the inner fender well needs a small repair
This should conclude the major rust repair, continuing treatment of the surface rust then will strip the body & get it into primer. Thinking I may paint the underside myself with some Zero-rust. The trunk lid was previously cleaned up & primed, need to dig the hood out of storage yet for prep & priming.
Put in a large order to Steele Rubber, & its been stuck in Canadian customs for 2 weeks. apparently they think I am an importer & am going to resell all the weather stripping................NOT! Still, supposedly have to get a business number & fill out some very confusing forms to get the shipment released. Very frustrating.
