Ron Dame Posted May 28, 2018 Report Posted May 28, 2018 I've been putting this off, removing the last of the rotted carpet and moldy interior on R1092. Yuk, I used a mask, but still ended up with a much of nasty in my nose. From there, I cut holes in the floor to access the hog troughs, cleaned out a mouse nest ( yeah, mask again!) and a bunch of acorns, then sprayed the inside of the troughs and frame rails with Eastwood internal frame coating. I hadn't touched the car in weeks, I was pissed at it (brakes again) but am back in the saddle again. Whooppy tye yi yay!
brad Posted May 28, 2018 Report Posted May 28, 2018 I never understood the limited access to cleaning out the hog troughs. They sure made it easy for things to get in.

They sure made it easy for things to get in. We have to keep in mind that these parts/cars were designed for a three year lifespan before deterioration, not 55 years.

The brakes are fine, I had White Post sleeve the rear cylinders, and all is well $85 each seems steep, but proper new cylinders are a bit more, and these won't pit again. The only other thing is that one dust sheild needs a bit more work to not scrape on teh Turner rotors.
