why isn't the metal inside the car treated coated in stone guard or something to prevent rust?

i'm surprised you wouldn't have done that before painting the outside.

The inside is getting a coat of black kill rust enamel with a brush. That's getting done as soon as it gets back from the paint shop tomorrow. To be honest, I just ran out of time to do the inside before it got painted. It had to be painted today or it wouldn't have been done for the wedding. It's no big deal though, it will get done.

ah same way we did the floor of mortons HQ, rust kill and then stone guard, painted on thick with a brush.

Yea i didn't think you would've left it like that, that's what confused me :p

Gosh it's been far too long since I checked on this build.
Looking fantastic 383_Hatch. Only 2 weeks to go; I hope everything goes smoothly. Any start up's yet??
