[T3] Lead Sled Floorpan progress

[Keith Park]

It looks great John!  Keep in mind though, you can put lots of layers of the
very best stuff on but if the rust is still there underneath, it will
eventually come back thru.

I sandblast and use the Eastwood product and a topcoat, or the POR 15 which
is fine so long as you don't paint over rust  ;-)

Cant wait to see some pictures of the body too when you get it re-assembled,
Its gonna look great!

That is the plan.....will see how it goes this fall and winter.



I ended up getting some Duplicolor Bed Armor aerosol cans today.  Two cans
did the entire underside of the pan.  I will need a couple of more cans to
finish off the wheel wells and the engine compartment and the underside of
the front end.  I need to get some seam sealer and do a few spots before I
spray on the bedliner.

I liked the way it went on.  Will probably do the inside of the fenders and
stuff with it too.

I don't think I will have a problem with the pan rusting.  It has two coats
of MasterSeries, two coats of epoxy sealer, and a coat of bedliner.

Here are a couple of pictures....tough to get good pictures from underneath.

The car is a bit bottom heavy with the pan on and it doesn't rotate on the
rotisserie as easy now.

Next step is to build a cart for the body and get it off the rotisserie.
