Howdy folks!
It's been a while since I've checked in. I figured I'd start a new thread in this section to talk about my restoration project. Here's what my car looks like right now [pic1 pic2 pic3 pic4].
My goal this year is to do as much body work on my own as possible. I've been watching body work tutorials on YouTube for the past few months to get an idea of techniques, tools, and things to watch out for (safety, etc).
I'm currently looking for a rust-free trunk/deck lid. If anyone knows a seller I would be most appreciative if you would hook me up. Here's what the edge of my deck lid looks like now [pic5]. Yikes! I'll have to strip the whole thing down just to get out all the rust. Also the underside of my roof is starting to get a lot of rust [pic6]. Any recommendations on how to clean this rust out? I thought I'd start with a wire wheel and then perhaps tape some plastic around the bottom parameter and use a sandblaster to get the rest of the rust out of those nooks.
Love perusing these forums. Keep up the great work!
