My dad and I took the old cracked windshield out of my Galxie this afternoon too discover more body rot and rust. (this explains the leaks) we knew it would be rusty but it still put us in the dumps anyway. seems on this old thing you just cant escape the rust demon. But at least the God smiled upon us (or shall i say smirked) when i discovered the original paint under the middle section of the rubber sill was still in tact and was shiney as new. (it was originally white, the color its going back to). but that stuff has to get done. nows a better time then ever i guess.

It is tough at times but you've got the right attitude. And knowing you did it right gives you alot of self satisfaction after you finish a phase of the car. I'm going through the same thing with my Camaro but it's really starting to shape up.

yeah and its pretty normal for a car thats 44 years old. Man i sure had a fun time cutting out all the old floor pans a few summers back! I found out quick that an angle grinder is my favorite tool!
