Re: Gary comes to call AKA three day build
Here Gary is starting to find his way around the shop and is getting comfortable with the equipment. I am amazed what Gary can do with one of these Scout 80s, and a little time. This will be a very quick build and be a great parts runner, I am looking forward to running around my small town in my cool little 61.

Re: Gary comes to call AKA three day build
The "rust" is only surface rust, so my plans are to wipe the body down with WD40, on occasion and enjoy the sweet patina that you could never have on the east side of this great country.

Re: Gary comes to call AKA three day build
My 65 has the "patina" you show but only on the hood and tops of the doors and rear bed.
When I said I was going to paint it, the members of BABS [Bay Area Binder Society] threatened life and limb if I did so. The truck sits under cover but not inside in the coastal California mountains with 100+ inches of rain in a normal season so I want to seal it without ******* the "patina". Next work session, I intend to treat the rusty areas with 'OS-Pho' which is a phosphoric acid treatment from your local ACE hardware store. It will darken the "patina" but stops the rusting.

Re: Gary comes to call AKA three day build
Can you not just spray some flat sealer or clear and preserve it where it is? That way if you get grease on it, you can wipe it off, but it will preserve the patina.

Re: Gary comes to call AKA three day build
I think it will look great the way it is. By the way, nice bear on the wall.
