well started cleaning driver fender and turns out my so called mint fenders i bought arent any better than the rust buckets i had . the rust didnt show up until i started strippin the paint off . i tried to sell these awhile back, glad the guy passed on them he wouldve been upset . wished i had passed aswell oh well, i hate rust.

hey benc-10, i just used a clean strip pad on a drill they also have them for a angle grinder which i think works a lot better but doesn't last as long, they are made by avanti PRO and came from home depot, for around $10.00.. thanks for looking..jw

well we started smoothing the firewall today, called porter built yesterday and he said he was a week or so out on firewall filler panel, didn't want to wait so we made our own . i guess a bead roll would've looked better . to late now . but still looks good
