You know what I say, if your not bleeding, your not working on a car. I opened the door and it slammed shut. Didn't see it coming, but I sure felt it.

More pictures coming

It's not really your car if it hasn't drawn blood!

When can I bring my car by for some rust removal.

Yea I got some on mine I need to get around too, just haven't felt like forking out the money for paint to repaint the area after I fix it :/

Ah, wonderful rocker panel rust. Luckily mine isn't that bad yet lol, but I see plenty that are. Good luck, looking forward to seeing some after pics.

mine almost as bad on the 97 and ouch about your ear

I would put some pictures up, but every time I try to upload them to photobucket it fails.

Have you tried the bulk uploader?

Well, I got a few uploaded.

After messing around with the cut off wheel, I ran out and bought this.

All gone.

Man, the rust. Guess I'm doing some glass work as well.

Drilled the holes for spot welding
Attachment 22089

All done.
Attachment 22090

Next time I do this, I'm buying a actual spot welder.

This took forever. If I went to fast it blew a hole in the metal.
Attachment 22092

Glassed up the hole.

Attachment 22094

Masking it off for paint.
Attachment 22095

Now I need to try to upload more pictures.

The problem seems to be my Internet connection. It's seems to be turning on and off. Kind of ticking me off.

I'm excited for the after pictures, that's quite the project you've got going. Hopefully your internet comes back up soon.
