I'm surprised it took him so long to end up here, iirc he had an immediate thing for my Imp but the keys to that car will have to be pried from my cold dead hand.

What kind of wheels are those?
They aren't what you would normally see on a C but not as completely out of place as some of those Donk wheels are.

It is amazing how many thousands ( hundreds of thousands?) of trunks rotted away because of the stupid crappy POS trunk mat.
And ALL those people never lifted it up?????

You have to wire wheel it first before you know what to do next. That produces a lot of surprises.
Yours truly has a thread on what looks like the exact same trunk.

Very nice!! I just ran thru the 3 pages of info (and 12 pages of smart-assery lol)
Is that rustoleum stuff tintable then? I'd much rather use that than the POR15. also, what grit(?) wire wheel did you use? or is it just called a wire cup?

I used one of these on my grinder. It went through everything like warm butter.
Wear a mask.
I saw that there were three manufacturers of that stuff at Home Depot. I bought the Rusto because it was tintable. Turns out, since I finished it with trunk spatter paint, the tinting was moot.
It took 5 cans of spatter paint, btw. 40 bucks, ughhhh!
Oh, and you only need two tubes of seam sealer, not 3.
On the rust converter, a qt. will be plenty. I didn't know when I bought the gal. My experience saves you money.
How you lay it down will determine the roughness of the final finish. Brush it. Don't roll it.
Good luck.
And yes, it it wasn't for all the smart assery, every thread would be boring and die an early death.

finally got her covered..
sucks she needs to live outside, but...at least she's protected with 7 layers!! yes, 7 layers of fabric impregnated with Rustoleum water-proof protection!!!!
s_dancing2:
I havent looked in the wheelhouse since the rain started a couple days ago...but im hoping the drivers carpet isn't soaked...again
carpet is going to get cut out once the rain stops anyways, that should take care of most of the mold stench.
then it's time to chase the dragon...
