Re: Project: Clean the Green Jimmy
That looks like a real solid project. Not much rust at all and other than needing a thorough cleaning it looks to be in real nice shape. Even the door panels look good. I'd say you scored.
Just out of curiosity, what are the "Rust Check" stickers? Never seen those before. |

Re: Project: Clean the Green Jimmy
found the problem causing the leak
guess it squeaked and they wedged in all this rubber caulking that or the 500 dead lady bugs wedged in there I glued a inch of the seal back that was loose had two rains since and nothing
