    First project of many that followed. Got enough out of it to start the next project, which I sold to start the next project... I'd like to say I learned my lesson from that experience, but apparently, those type of projects seem to be my normal, rather then the exception. Gene

    Wow. You guys are inspiring. I'm gonna quit complaining about the rust repairs on my London Taxi. You guys are dealing with FAR worse.

    I used to subscribe to a British magazine called Practical Classics, dedicated to using old cars as daily drivers. I was amazed by some of the rust repairs they documented in those pages, that resulted in beautiful finished cars. It makes me feel lucky to live in the Rocky Mountains where rust is simply not an issue on our old cars, unless they came here from the midwest.
