71 Twister up for adoption

I just went through this on my 73 Satellite.

It had one repaint when I bought it but the paint and primer both developed hairline cracks all the way to the metal.

About every three months, surface rust would start at the cracks and grow into patches.

Cutting compound could knock it back down, but the rust would come back in one or more places in three months.

For almost 3 years I shopped around for a body shop.

Most quoted 5-6,000 dollars to start and most wanted to do base/clear, which I didn't want.

I finally found a place that does driver quality flips of classic cars.

They used my paint and charged $2000.

This was after I painted the engine bay myself and removed the chrome and bumpers.

It's not perfect, but it fixed the seeping rust issue.
