Its been a busy couple of days
Thursday good weather so decided to dig out old seam sealer power sand the drivers footwell and get it ready for paint
Another Mustang II owner had said so me don't forget to remove the Non AC blank plate and paint behind reseal etc.
What Plate I asked?
AC cars like mine you can feed blower motor air through the vents,whereas the poverty spec NON AC cars its heat or blower air to Feet or Screen that's it
The vents are just unassisted fresh air and if its AC the drivers side is blocked off (its shared inlet on passengers side non AC)
Anyway I Open it and I am greeted with this
Which was evicted after it being in there for a minimum of 2.5 years????
Thankfully once dried out its still solid just surface rust from the damp held in there
With all the eviction drama I forgot to take the Sanding/Degreasing stage pics so have a gratuitous Red Oxide with Zinc undercoat action shot
As you can see the floors are solid as but there have been a few leaks owing to failed seam sealer of 70's vintage so I decided to derust degrease and make good
Besides Ford back in the day put piss thin paint on the inside floors which is why Mustang II's that lived her from day one are no more
and mine has only survived because it lived 43 years in West Coast USA!
As its only behind the Dash/under Carpet/Headliner etc all these areas are being brush painted Bonda Primer followed by good old Rustoleum
All this was done Thursday only one side for now as welding needed (those stress cracks) on tother side and besides neighbour on holiday so doing that side while i have extra room on that side
As Yesterday was bloody awful I started to refurbish my pedal box components,Sand/Degrease/Undercoat in the confines of the dry porch
Today I was at it again with the Gloss but as its sticky and slow drying I am doing one side today the other tomorrow
