    Ok, it's been a long time coming but I'm about to break into the bottom of this car and get rid of the rust. I'm pretty sure I'll have to run all new brake lines and such, but for body components, what's the best thing to neutralize and stop the rust? POR15? I'm going to use a drill and wire brush for as much as possible to remove it, just need to know where to go from that point. I'll be doing to repair to the rusty quarters too, cutting out the rusted sections and repairing the rest. Then comes the factory GT/GTP side skirt install.

    Sad fact of owning a car in Kentucky after it spent most of its life in Ohio.

    You may be able to cover up and eliminate alot of the rust. But be aware that once it starts to rust it won't stop completley.

    Well, I work with what I've got to work with, lol. Only thing I can do at this point is try to salvage what I can. I'm not too fond of the cover up idea, which is why I'm going to try and remove as much as possible.
