well there wasnt a heap of rust in there just some surface stuff that was slowly gonna get outa control, it seems the deadner they put in there cracked like a roadmap and trapped water/moisture in there but did allrite for 30 odd years

Image084

lookin at the door lock, finaly finished scraping that bastard deadner shit off, got next to no skin left on my knuckles and already looking forward to doing the other door.

Image087

ripped all the rubbers out of the door, i really gota start getting all the gear before i start doing things cuase now ill have to wait for the new rubber seals to come. i do it every bloody time...

Image090

cant really see it from here but theres a we bit of rust at the top there were waters been leakin in over the years slowly starting to get worse and worse i got it before anyreal damage was done

Image100

sorry bout the shit shot but im usin my phone to takes these pics cuase the digital cameras flat and i really couldnt be botherd going down the shop to get more batteries but yea

Image101

all sanded out ready to go, man it took me ages to sand these bastards out, on the next one i might get one of those palm sanders

Image103

we bit more to go

Image102

thought id show you the standerd i got it to as it took me ages and alot of beers

Image105

really shoulda thought this through and put gloves on but i thought nah ill just wash it off with thinners once im done, that woulda workd if i had some bloody thinners left. once again plan ahead poeple. by the time i found the empty bottle of thinners the shit had pretty much set anyhow.

Image104

the only stuff that will get this stuff off now is time....

Image119

bit hard to take a pic of it but this is the rust preventive stuff

Image118

its almost a shame to sand it and put that sticky deadner shit on it

Image162

heres the pasenger door and heres some bog, i just wire wheeled it turned out to be an old repair that was rusting from the inside out, then when i filled her up with acid then thinners to hopefully flush the acid then i injected por 15 into it, not really shore if it will work but i may cutting a hole in here later on down the road for some speakers. not sure yet
