Re: 1968 Chevrolet SWB Stepside Restomod

Hey all;
I started to tackle the wheel houses, they aren't too bad for what I paid for them, they have a little bit of pitting and the usual dents and dings you would expect to find on a 45 year old part but there is no through rust and they are definitely usable.

I put the polycarbide disk on the side angle grinder and went after the worst spots and the metal cleaned up decent but they will need more work to get them to where they are nice, so I sprayed some primer and sealer on them and called it a day for now, this will keep them from deteriorating further until I am ready for them.
