'71 MM project
**UPDATE**
I finally shot some black on the car. See the link below for new pics.
This photo is my "before" picture. I have already removed all of the stainless rust collecting trim from the rockers (totally rusted out) and bottom edge of doors (spots rusted through).
Back in '71 someone said "I got an idea, why don't we put C-shaped metal trim on an already wet area so it can trap the water in there and make the body rust to the point that it rusts through the panel and all the bits of rust will clog the weep holes in the bottom of the doors. This way they will fill up with water and make it rust from the inside even more and eventually it will pour out through the door panels and ruin the pressboard, vinyl, carpet, flooring and plywood sub-floor." "Awesome" said another! "I have a friend that runs a Ziebart shop! They'll be lined up for miles!"
I will be grindin' a bunch. I hope to get some progress photos up as I go. I have corrected all that leaks and/or collects water. Getting it to stay dry is the first step.
