@@5150mxVW , get the car done and drive it back there on a nice summer day, then even though it's running and painted..tell him now you're going to rail buggy it! LOL, maybe not, his poor heart might not take it. A tip, use quarts of rustoleum paint from a big box store that starts with a M, not only reasonable on sale, but contains anti-rust stuff right in it, and they have a surprising range of colors, I know as I've used it more than once. Works great
