Meanwhile, my little red 64 got a few rust repairs in the engine compartment. First the engine steady.

[Sorry, It's been a while what with Christmas, family visits, new tenant, and all that stuff.
Peter got the bottom completely sealed and epoxyed the third coat We hope this is sufficient.

This also extends to all the seams around the car. There is very little body work to be smoothed, basically where some panels were joined or repaired, but with all this epoxy paint just about everything must be smoothed by hand before paint.

This car is not a show car and will not be body colour all the way around. (Likely dark blue or purple) The bottom is pretty much completed the way it is. So now the suspension will be assembled and installed to facilitate rolling to the paint shop.
The rear subframe is powdercoated and assembled:

We also have an old set of wheels

The front subframe will be assembled this evening, being the usual Tuesday evening work night.
