June 9, 200618 yr Author comment_170477 I cant believe you did that! Was there any damage done to the shell or did it work out good??That method looks ALOT easier than what I've been doing (on a creeper with a torch and a scraper). Nice work. You could get that whole bottom POR'd in no time now!! Post some pics of how it's progressing. ZakHa ha Ya i can't believe I did it either, I ask on this thread if anyone thought it would be ok to do and nobody said anything so i went with it! there was no damage at all. well i f'd up the little red wagon but other than that nothing. He did the whole under side, engine bay and interior compartment in under 2 hours, cost me $140 which was well worth it!!! I'm going to put it back on its side in the garage to POR-15 it!

July 3, 200618 yr comment_173179 I am sure glad my body was about rust free, That is more work then I want to do. I shouldn't bitch about the little body work i have to do when i see the time you have in. By the wayCremenga, what's your opinion on the por-15 stuff?I asked them for a catalog 2 weeks ago and still haven't gotten one. Are you using anything else besides the black.steve Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/16052-what-ive-been-up-to/?&page=3#findComment-173179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
