Hi Guys,
I have continued to strip the body and have started with a couple of suspect areas that I knew about when I purchased the car as opposed the the inner sills that I didn't know about....
I work a little bit each day on stripping the body and practice a little welding when I can.
Anyway, here is tonights record.
Here are two areas that I knew would need to be addressed when I purchased the car...
Passenger Side Spare Tire Compartment
Drivers Side
Pretty bad cover up with fiberglass much like I found in the battery box and inner sills.
So I started to strip out the fiberglass to see how bad.
I am going to remove the body mounting bracket tomorrow. Looks like it is spot welded and I should be able to drill out the welds or get an air chisel in behind it.
Question for the sidescreen guys...are the brackets still available to purchase or will I have to fabricate some new ones?
Looks like I will be doing repair on the rear close in panel as well as the bracket on that side is rusted through as well. Will know more once the bracket is off.
Cheers,
M. Pied Lourd
