Easy Rust Repair the ‘Hack’ Way

[EricTheCarGuy]

Time will tell but I think this repair worked out pretty good. For now. That may be all I need though. As for the color match, well, the entire car needs paint so I’m not really worried about it. What are your thoughts?

[quote=”EricTheCarGuy” post=102189]Had the parts been available for the Vigor I might have gone that rout, but the parts are discontinued. Before they were discontinued they were $1100 per side. So for me, I think the tiger hair sandwich was appropriate.

Nice work BTW.[/quote]

Oh completely agree mate. no point in spending that kinda money unless it’s a show car or something. luckily for me I got another buddy who’s breaking a car like mine so stealing the arches off that for £20 lol

70 y.o. new guy here. For rust repair on a beater, in a complex area like a p.u. cab corner, after cutting out the rust sometimes I epoxy in some aluminum window screen. That can easily be hand formed to shape. Then fiberglass, grind down, bondo, fill & sand.

I’m gonna be up late watching your videos. Very down to earth approach.
