Here is the rust in the tailgate. I also found out why my rear wiper wasn't working... turns out for some reason (that I really cannot understand) they chopped the plug off at the motor ... so there's just 4 or 5 wires hanging about ... hmmm...








Repainted the rocker cover. This was before I had made the move to strip the car.





I think that's about it. I am a little upset I won't be driving it anytime in the near future. However it will be well worth the wait to ensure all the rust is taken out and to start a fresh with awesome paint and some replaced parts. Pretty much I'm saying the paranoia will be removed of something falling off, of snapping, or breaking or rusting to pieces, etc etc.

Oh, I guess I should say this. I'm still unsure as to whether I'll do all this work and this register it, or register it and then do the work. I have a few things left on my check list to complete before it goes to get register. I guess it will depend on how I want to spend the money when I get to that point in time.
