Had some downtime today waiting for some delivers so got me grinder out and some krust not used it in years but it's supposed to do the job.

Ground back the rust, applied krust and wire brushed it to death and wiped it away.

Then some liberal application of primer. Got back and one side done can't wait to get some panels and get welding.

Took her for test and she failed on 4 holes and a diesel leak from the front injector area.

I've plated the floor but I'm fecked if I can find the leak I e replaced the spill off pipes but she's still leaking I've ordered some injector seals hopefully this will cure it. Found out she's an 85 so I'm on the hunt for 100 or bigger injectors
