Reply to "The restoration of #4164"

#4164Member

Last weekend put some time in to cut open the rocker panels and to check for the all over condition of the internals, A and B pillar, lower edge, frame rails, inner supports etc. As expected, the car is due for a full restoration. I am still happy for what I was able to find. This car has 52 years on the meter and so far no previous repair attempts could be found. After removing the rockers and washing the rust off with rust remover the initial impression improved. The inner reinforcements are in excellent condition and can be reused. The chemical dip will take care of the surface rust. No holes in the front wheel house and rear frame rails. I'll keep digging.

to be continued...
