The before picture with the rust/pitted metal
 The after...we used a new welding technique or maybe not so new using this adhesive which is supposed to be a strong as a weld...

 The finished product....

At the Body Shop July 2012

 This is where my baby lives everyday now...
I will post updates at the end of each week so you can see the progress

 You can see my handy work on the frame and rear axle

 The rt quarter panel is 95% down to the metal now with only a bit of rust to cut out

 The rocker panels were actually the first thing I sanded since this is typically the worse area for rust on the car....and what to do you know...ZERO rust!  Yippeee

 This is the before picture...I actually cleaned the rest off today


 Lft rear quarter panel



 The entire roof has been sanded to the metal with zero rust...nice



 Did discover that the seams were seal with lead so we will have to grind that out and replace with seam sealer


 Sanded the entire deck lid and it is good to go!


 Now there is a clean quarter panel



 a little dusty but that front end is gonna be nice


 The first of many mods to the car...I have removed the trim and welded the holes over then ground them down...Rick actually did the welding..I hope to get my hands on that part for the other quarter panel


Here are some more trim holes that were filled on the rear deck panel
