  1. Thanks for the enthusiasm and support, I by no means have forgot about this post or the old bird. I will try to upload some pics real soon.
  2. Well that's what I got for now. I'll upload more very soon to add to this rust saga. trust me though when I say I'm winning the war and she'll be on the road sooner then later
  3. For the most part guys im going to post pics and fill in as much as i can but if you have any questions please feel free, im an open door and I think pictures tell a thousand tales
  4. well following in suit with the shipyard repair the right side tower had a plate to cover the rust that would have been easier to cut then what they decided to do. I cut that out and found that it was and oversight. for it was a quick fix and maybe about an hour of repair. This all came about when I removed the steering box to evaluate it and the questionable repair behind it.
  5. I continued to de-spot weld the front and found that the lower core support was very rusted and fixed as if it was in shipyard with 1/8" plate steel. rather then fixing the problem in japan they just plated over and encapsulated the problem vs. just doing it right. That lower core support literally weighed 10lbs., I showed some friends and they were laughing on how over kill and ridiculous the repair was.
  6. ok so an update...at the old house I accessed the damage of the front fascia and came to the conclusion that the front end was far beyond saving as far as time goes, half the the battle is realizing when rust has won the battle but not the war. I decided vs. nickel and dimeing the rust I would just dump the lot and solve the greater picture
  7. she's going to be flat black for now as most birds are white and I think that is a little over used. Also it matches the team color and her younger sister
  8. Sorry for the delay guys, I've been moving and now that I'm settled I can start to pick up on this thread where I left off. To answer your question randy it started it's life as a p510 which as we all know designates the 1600 l series. Little did we all know that this bird is Alot rustier then she appears as she has suffered much sub standard work and shotty craftsmanship. I will get more pics up soon to cover the surgery and I've almost cut the car down to the roof to eradicate the rust. I'm saving this car despite what the rust thinks. Like I said I eat rust for breakfast.
  9. I'll let all these pics sink in...I don't want to overload you guys or the site lol. I've got many more where that comes from. I will upload more soon. calling it a night. Let me know what you guys think so far
