Undercarriage
|

The undercarriage
was wire wheeled down to bare metal. I found one small rust spot
about ¼ to 3/8 inch. This
was cut out and repaired to original.
Then the undercarriage was etch primed, then undercoated and
then painted Hok Black. The
undercarriage looks as nice as the top of the car. I spent about 200
hours on the undercarriage.
