Re: Project 69SWB
Looks great man! How's your motivation level after seeing it sitting outside like that? A 10? I pushed my cj7 outside today to wet sand the high build, and something about seeing sitting outside again, lit the fire. Anyway, your truck is gonna look awesome when you get that black on!

You're making me want to build another jeep with that jeep talk. Here's my last one. I sold it though. :-( Here my last jeep fresh out of the garage. http://ozarksjeepthing.com/c/index.p....html#msg56305 And out in the trails during its shakedown run. http://ozarksjeepthing.com/c/index.p....html#msg56311 Those are deep links to my build thread on that site if you ever get bored check it out... I did a ton of fabricating on that jeep. 1 ton axles, 40" pit bull rockers, locked front and rear, twin stick too. Last edited by ~Whitey~; 01-26-2014 at 11:53 PM. |

Re: Project 69SWB
Oh do I know. The thought did cross my mind, but I've got a little filler work to do, some glazing, and lots of blocking. I want this thing to be straight! I'm working with all original metal here... save for the rockers, inner cab supports, and cab corners.

Re: Project 69SWB
I'm still mopping up drool after looking through that jeep build. WOW! You have got some serious fab skills. My CJ is a toy compared to that thing. Should be done painting in a couple weeks. I'll send you some pictures when I'm done.

Re: Project 69SWB
Alright folks I've wired brushed, gator wheeled, sand blasted, converted, stripped with acid stuffs, covered up and stink eyed rust as much as I can stand it.. The're got to be a better way.
I've seen videos about Electrolysis, but figured it was too much trouble in the past and just stayed away from it.. decided to get all scientific yesterday and come up with this quick contraption: (don't make fun.. It's my first time!) ![]() Rust Annihilator Apparatus Version 1.0 The victim of a rustful crime and the experimentee.. I just put it in without even loosening up the scale rust. After just 40 minutes of rust-kickin bliss I pulled it out to check on it... Looks a little different eh? Last edited by ~Whitey~; 02-02-2014 at 05:00 PM. |

Re: Project 69SWB
I could litterally wipe the rust off to bare metal with my fingers. I took a steel brush to it for barely 3 minutes then dried it off.
I also wanted to see the different between vinegar and this. NO before shot, but they were covered in rust. The one on the left.. I put in the Rust Annihilator Apparatus Version 1.0 for 30 minutes.. The one on the right... in vinegar for 24 hours. took a wire brush to both.. Couldn't get the rust off the vinegar version.. slid right of Rust Annihilator Apparatus Version The results were so amazing to me.. I decided to go BIGGER!

Re: Project 69SWB
Wow really like the rust remover. Let me know when you have it figured out to do large pieces like a cab with surface rust.
