We started cleaning up some of the surface rust around the wheels. First we ground out the old body fill and as much of the rusted metal as possible. |
|
Then we treated it with Eastwood Rust Encapsulator paint. |
|
Next we applied Rage body fill. This spot will need more body fill.
The next step is to sand and prime. |
|
Here's the leading edge of the bonnet ready for sanding. |

I picked up two items we need on
ebay this week.
First, a convertible top cover for about $40. The top cover needs a few snaps, but otherwise it's good. |
|
and, a tonneau cover.
I also got the tonneau for about $40, but it needs two zippers repaired. Last week one sold for $176, so it was a good deal. |
