Earl's 1971 Dart
Well, After a thorough inspection of this car, I have found a couple of soft rust spots on the rockers, and see some bubbling. I also see some blisters, so instead of just repainting the panels that were keyed, I'm going to go ahead and take the car back down and do it right, check all the Bodywork and repaint the entire car except for underhood,Trunk, and the door jambs. They all look good. I'm also going to pull the seats and carpet. Check the floorpans from the top and bottom ( even though they appear solid ). I just dont like to do anything Half ***....I know the motor was built right, as we went through it when we changed the cam, but i want to make sure the body is right. If you've looked at my 64 build on B Bodies, you'll see I fix any and all rust with new metal....so much for cruising in it this summer...
