68 Mustang #3
The car is still on the rotisserie getting the grease, oil, under seal & old paint cleaned off. I have a couple more passes to be made before it ready for paint.
I can only scrub on the bottom for an hour each time and clean and repair other parts for the rest of my workday. Took the heater out and apart to be repaired as extra parts for it came with the car, new heater core behind the old one.The box is fiberglass, but the internal parts and doors are rusty steel. The packages in the background are new gaskets and seals that came as spare parts.
The emergency brake unit, cable and parts were bead blasted and painted. The handle was broken off and will be replaced.
All the metal parts of the heater were bead blasted, painted then put back together using the new core and gaskets.
The rear fender apron was rusted through and needed repair.
With the rusted part cut out a new panel was made.
New panel welded in place ready for a coat of paint.
Leaf springs and fuel line were sandblasted then painted.
Cleaning the bottom and fire wall will continue until some budget money becomes available for a new radiator support and the paint.
