    I'll be patching in some panels in the rockers and cowel of my 57 Ranchero. The areas I have access to I can clean up and and paint with Restore. What about the areas I can't get to, but I know there is significant rust? Does anyone have any ideas . . . like a foam expanding version of Restore? I haven't heard of one. I don't want to do a bunch of body and paint work only to have rust find it's way to the surface in 10 years. Maybe a giant vat of primer/sealer like an acid dip. Anyone know of one. Thanks, Chuck.

    A also have 4 model T doors that I can't seem to give away. Everybody wants them, no one will pick them up. Free in A.G., CA 93420.

    rust is rust and the reaction that starts it does not end easily, blasting removes alot but does not get at the rust unless alot metal is removed, dipping gets everthing but it can be difficult to repaint alot of the nooks and crannies,

    but if your rocker are rusted they rust from the insdie out, the best way is to replace the rocker and inner rocker with new metal. call bob @ 216-541-4585 and he will help you look a these pics
