Get after it! Good to see you are back at it migs. I have some nice rust neutralizer called "ospho" if you want to try some of it.

B,
Pick up a cheap dehumidifier. it will work great. Also fully insulating your shop (can't remember if it was or not) will stop it dead as well.

let me know if you ever need a hand.

Yah me too and i'm closer;D

that bit of rust was my fault. six months ago when I pressure washed the underside I knew some water got up there. didnt think I wouldnt touch it for this long...oh well. not really a big deal, just a light surface rust. it will come off easy when I start prepping for paint.

After some recent motivation I'm trying to get the progress rolling again so I dragged a parts donor into the garage so I can pull it apart to get what I need. had to use my giant swiss army knife to help move it, works great when there is no one around to help push and steer. more fun this way too.;D

If you cut it save the cut outs incase you (or someone else if you ever sell it) want's to put them back in.
