Hello,got this car in Juni 2018, it looks good outside but rust was hidden as i aspected,but it came more and more..

Taking all rust of it that i can find and will take care of it in the future... both rear fender is fixed, and ready to get the fender flares install again outside.

Next Chapter was the rust on the frame parts, took down the fuel tank, sandblasted area around etc.. now im welding the frame some places it is crispy rust or thin sheet metals around... i have many pictures so i will upload when i have time...

After all rust is taken and protected i will begin to replace some parts on the car.

Another from the North

My 2nd gen 1990 T4R was bought in Canada, and came to us in my father-in-law's will. He'd kept it garaged so much that in 2003 it had 18,000 miles on the clock. Then I had to store it on an outdoor lot for six years and the front rotors rusted so badly they had to be replaced. I hope your rotors did better.

Pretty impressive and intensive. You've got to have passion and skills to get this far on this project. Congrats!
 
Thanks, many future plans for the car keep me motivated to fix it, but very interesting in mechanic works too.

.

Just some finish details on the bracket today, and add some weldingprimer so it will dry for tomorrows welding.

Got a new sealingstrip for the tailgate window, but it was so bended and damage in transport that i getting a new one soon. I could probably fix it but i think it will not seal 100% then.. the old one is not sealing at all, it have a big gap all the way..
