Father-Son 1974 Duster Project

Misty Mopar our 74 Duster is now CANCER FREE!!!! (for the most part)
She still has surface rust here and there, and she is only a part of the way through reconstructive surgery, but the surgeon is getting better with the welder and in a few weeks we should have all the inner rust we cut out patched back in and coated with Chassis Saver.
I think after we graft pieces in to repair the trunk extensions, we will address a few spots in the trunk we had to cut out rust through.
Most every day after school my boys push her out and scrape away at old caulk and seam filler.
I'm trying to deal with wire brushing and welding and grinding on inner parts of the car for now, not worrying about sanding down the body yet because it has paint on it for now and I figure even old paint will protect the old girl while she's having her skeleton fixed.
We are going to leave the quarters on until the new skins arrive and that wont be until underneath, trunk, engine bay, floor, inside roof and firewall are all sanded. scraped and sealed with Chassis Saver. That stuff is amazing. If Oldmanmopar says its better than POR15 and any paint will adhere to forever that's good enough for me.
I have watched every youtube tutorial on quater panel skin installation and most of them say to cut it in to just below the main bodyline due to the panel remains on the car are strongest at that point and it a good place for that long weld.
Forgot to take pics before we put her away for the night, but I was able to snap this one of her while she was resting in the recovery room.....Note her new freshly built shiny motor sitting on the cradle in the left of the picture.
