    Finished up the repair on the inner shield except for priming and will get that done. Use the same process as used on the core support except did not weld any metal, hole was to small, rust treatment, jb weld and a little plastic metal.

    Finally finished repair of the radiator core support. Finished the rust treatment and made a template out of cardboard and cut a piece of sheet metal to match, tack welded it to the support, not the best looking welds, cleaned things up with jb weld and plastic metal. Will clean up the whole...

    Well, still working on the core support and fender shield but got to checking the frame horn and wondering what you guys use on the surface rust in them, a wire brush only go in so far. By the way found a spark plug in the left horn and the bumper has never been off, how did it get there

    Those were the ones that I looked at that made me decided to see if I could repair it so I pulled out the usual, wire brush, sandpaper and my Harbor Freight air needle scaler. It cleaned up fairly well considering and after that gave it a good treatment of rust converter and let it set for a...

    I got the core support out yesterday and it didn't look near as bad as I thought it did after checking the cost of getting one shipped, more than cost of the core support itself. The only bad spot is under the battery tray area, anyway will start cleaning it up to see how bad the rust really is.

    Finally got the inner shield off and it didn't look to overly bad, a little cleaning up, some rust treatment and repair the hole that rusted through and it should be good to go. The next step is to check out the core support in that area.

    Today I started getting ready to pull the right inner fender shield to check out how much was damage was done from leaking battery acid. Before I could pull the inner shield I had to unbolt the running board on that side and pull it back far enough to get to the bolt so I decided to just take...

    Pull the battery tray out to clean it up and see if it could be reused. After working with it for a little while it didn't take long to see that it wasn't worth while trying to save it, it was worse than it looked. New one on order. Will check the inner fender shield and radiator support in...

    Well yesterday I decided to work around under the hood, everything appears to be original but there is a lot of work to be done especially in and around the battery tray area. Going to pull the battery tray out and see if it will clean up and be usable and will also check the area under the...
