Default I ain't got NO body......

...one heck of a dune buggy Gord.

Back to working on the skin of my cab 11 doors.... have you used the welding Zinc primer for blind spots you can rustproof after the parts are un place.

Any suggestions / comments...?

I haven't used any of the weldable zinc primers, I'm a Rust Check fan. Hopefully some one with more experience with welding will give you some guidance. Good to hear that you are back working on the truck. Time to put your radio toys away and get back to the real work.

" Heck of a dune buggy". Yes that is going to be cold driving down the road, isn't it!

Had to get the shop emptied out too set up for lunch, with some fellow MV enthusiasts, last Saturday. Had the truck running for the first time in, well decades?

Default keeping up!

Bob

The first sputters were rather undramatic and not preserved for the future. It almost started and almost runs, needs a like work yet. As too keeping up with Phil, I'm not even in the same league.

So, what do you think of this winter S--t. Working in the barn on the 11 cab doors or still in the warm house with the radio?
