rumblefish's Duster project

Thanks halfed. Heres a couple of shots of what a surprise I got when I opened up the rear cover to change the oil and pop the C clip out to slide the axles out for the backing plate swap. The fella I purchased it from had it outside on the ground for awhile. You should have seen it then. A hint is in the above pictures. Look at the wheel cylinder.
I was like; GREAT! Just wonderful. The rust actually did not extend much beyond what you see. Again, it was a spray of WD-40 and a flat wire brush that did the trick. Oh, lots-o-time to do it. A flake or to of rust will get crushed, but the least amount left behind is ....well more than enuff.
I just flipped the rear after spraying WD-40 on it and scrubed gently.
The Cover was cake.

Kirk, it probably was Feb. at the time. :sad2:
