User Rides / pics of my flintstone car
I removed a fender yesterday.
to my surprise, it's  better than i expected.
I think if it's mostly floor repair i can live with fixing that

I'll keep taking it apart and see what i find.
If i do get another car, this one will already be stripped

I dont see much rust past the rear end.

got about a gal. of eastwood rust encapsulator about 7 years ago.
used it in the engine comp. back then and stopped the rust dead
(red spots under the hood). I may just blast everything fix the holes and coat it

If anything it'll keep me out of trouble this winter.

Just a couple of pictures today

Lounge / 1st post
As most of you have probably noticed, I've been lurking around the forum for about a half a year or so. I hope no one minded, i just wanted to check it out a while before i actively joined in.

So here it goes. I've owned my 87 cougar since about 89 and stored it away for the last 7 years. I've been remodeling our 2nd house in that time, and pushing off restoring my cat. now the time has come, only to find out that its been rusting away to nothing in my garage

here's some pictures of what i have left after all that waiting.
Keep in mind I live in Buffalo NY. "THE SALT CAPITOL OF THE WORLD"
Its probably the only city where the blacktop is still white in early june.

I know there was some rust before, but I didn't expect that.

Apparently my garage floor isn't sealed and soaks up water like a sponge. I may as well been parked it on the wet grass for 7 years.

So now, what to do.
I know i can fix it (as bad as it is) but the sight of the floor sucked the wind out of my sails.

The only reason I have to fix it would be that there's a lot of memories in that car.

My other plan is to find another project car. this time with no rust on it. and then go from there. I can always swap my interior. its almost in perfect condition.

I hope I didn't carry on to much for a first post
