Finally, my son Kevin helped me weld the 14 holes that were drilled during history.
After masking and a good cleaning I sprayed the engine compartment with a echy primer and what a great primer.
Next will be to add some filler on the welds and sand it down.
I will also glass bead the bolts for the fenders as well as the pins and bolts in the front of the fender which make the assembly line workers to hang the fenders on the body. The hood adjustment pins nuts and the tiny cover plate in each corner will also be done. But since I bougjt this car from the previous owner in Novato, CA the fendertag hasn't been mounted. But tomorrow after it has been glass beaded it will go back just as it used to.
Then it will be time to spray the yellow paint.
I brought five samples of factory paint chips to the paint shop and they did a computer scanning and found a yellow paint called McKenzie bus yellow. Sound like a color from down under! It was spot on compared to the five samples.
