I'm probably going to get a little done tonight...just got back from a friends house since I needed a break from the Mustang, I miss it. Haha!

 

[1990_LX]

Going out to bang out some more rust removal....I will work on pics tonight because it's too nice out to waste.

good luck man, nice project dude, much more of a mustang than Resvon will ever have, pretty soon before you know it and your pockets are empty your car will look some what like mine, lol just make sure its true sonic blue, and doesn't look "TOO" purple in certain light.

Thanks man, I haven't gotten much done today because I had to make family visits for Easter and such but I did pick up my alternator and throw that on.

 

[1990_LX]

I haven't done too much in the last couple of days but I got a few small things done...I started redoing one of the 10 hole rims I got for free, I got just about all of the rust off of my tail light panel, and I put my new alternator on. I'm uploading some pics in a minute to my photobucket account to post up.

 

[1990_LX]

Okay, heres some pics!

Just about all of the rust is gone!

This is just starting with 100 grit but they're going to be sweet. Just look at the other pictures of when I first got them and see the difference.

Now that I replaced the alternator, the power steering pump is leaking and the battery is toast, sweeet! Haha.

Now worries, thanks. My Uncle is going to let me borrow his DA so that should speed things up a lot. Does anyone have any tips for using them?

 

[1990_LX]

Well I haven't done any updates to this thread lately but I have been working one the car. I started polishing up the American Racing rims I got and they're coming out nicely. I got one side striped of the double sided tape which holds the moldings on and a couple of other things as well. It's a long haul with this thing....:smash:

 

[1990_LX]

Wow, time flys...still working on it. I got the tape the holds the moldings on striped off of the drivers door and I have worked on more sanding but that's about it...It's coming though.

 

[wildponies]

Lots of hard work, But it will pay off when you finish it..

 

[1990_LX]

Finished is a relative term lol. Mostly when you get bored and want a new project.

 

[lonepalm]

keep plugging along and posting pics!

 

[1990_LX]

I just keep finding rust.:smash:

 

[lonepalm]

not surprising, considering our area

 

[1990_LX]

Tell me about it

 

[lonepalm]

Many moons ago I picked up a '68 vert while stationed in Brunswick, Maine. One night while cruisin around I pushed the headlight dimmer switch right through the floor pan! Now that's rust, lol
