Rear Section

I was happily surprised at what I didn't find when I removed the  undercoating... Rust. The only area that was in need of serious  attention was the fender to body joint. The seam was sealed with  undercoating  from the bottom, so much for water draining out.  Both sides got new Dog Legs.  The post had only surface rust.	Looks a little better than it did
Now that the rear exterior is done its on to the interior.	What a difference some sandblasting and a little self etching  primer make. I have seen the damage that sandblasting can  do in the form of distorting sheet metal. I avoided this by using  paint remover first then sandblasting at a relatively low pressure.  It takes a while but it does work. If you use paint remover be  sure that it contains NO ACID or you will end up promoting  rust if you fail to completely neutralize or remove it.
