Hello! I'm new!

Welcome from up here in the Mitten, glad to have you with us. Sorry to say, I’ve had a couple of DS parts cars that were once beautiful, but up here most older cars are painted with our state color…rust! Good luck on that DS resto, and keep the pics coming!

Originally from the Chicago area myself. Totally understand the rust.

Luckily this one I have was in Florida most of it's life. It was bought by someone in Indiana after that where it sat in a field. There was rust still, but I feel pretty blessed with one that wasn't too bad. Worst spot was the roof support cage inside that was rusted out because of a drip tray leak. I have to rip this roof off and replace it with another one that I'm sandblasting after I took it apart. Fun Fun Fun!
