    I think that we can no longer describe a car on here as "Radically channeled" if all of it is above the pavement...

    The dirt doesn't need fertilizer to corrode anything.

    Rust is an electrochemical reaction caused by the interaction of negative free electrons and positive ions in the metal. As in any electronic process, the positive side, the anode, gets eaten away while the negative side, the cathode, is protected. Cathodic protection interferes with this interaction interrupting the corrosion process. There are two methods of Cathodic Protection:

    The first method, Sacrificial Anode, makes use of an anode, usually made from aluminum or zinc, which has a more positive charge than the metal being protected. This potential (Voltage) difference causes a greater attraction of negative free electrons than the ions in the metal. The result is that the anodes now get sacrificed (corroded) and the corrosion process in the metal is interrupted and hence protected. This method relies on there being an electrolyte (current path), such as water, between the anode and the metal, without this electrolyte, it is ineffective.

    The second method, Impressed Current, makes use of a direct electrical current, which interferes with the corrosion process. In this system, the electrical circuit is completed through an inert anode material that is not consumed in the process. This method is effective but due to the nature of current choosing the easiest path, it is difficult to protect large areas of metal and so needs very large amounts of current to be effective.

    Hell cut it straight at the dirt line, and hang it upside down from the rafters in your shop. Nice art work find!

    Its all been dug up. Everything but the actual body shell are home. We have to wait 'til the beans are off, before we can get that. I'll start a new thread with pics & info when it comes home. Until then, you'll just have to wait and wonder :p
