(BEFORE) THESE WOULD BE BUFFALO, NEW YORK DOORS, RUSTED INSIDE & OUT. THE DRY ROTTED, UPPER OUTER BELT MOLDING ALLOWED WATER TO SEEP INTO THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR. AS A RESULT, THE RUST WORKS ITS WAY FROM INSIDE TO OUTSIDE. TO REPAIR THIS DAMAGE, WE CUT TWO PANELS OUT (BIGGER THAN THE ACTUAL RUSTED AREAS), ACID BATH THE NEW PANELS, MIG WELDING (NOT BRAZING, BIG PROBLEMS LATER), AND ADD NEW METAL INSIDE AND OUT. NEXT WE APPLY ALL METAL-TYPE FILLER, SHAPE AND PRIMER WITH A TWO-STAGE PRIMER, DRILL DRAINAGE HOLES IN THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR, AND DEFINITELY REPLACE ALL THE WEATHER SEALS.
|
(AFTER) FORMED METAL PATCH. NEXT STEP IS TO APPLY AN ALL METAL TYPE BONDO, TWO STAGE PRIMER.

"ONE RUSTED 53 BUICK ROADMASTER." MIG WELDED REAR FENDERS TO THE 1/4s, FLATTEN DASH AND FIREWALL, FOUND A LOT OF RUST ON THIS ONE. NOT TO WORRY. WE ARE FROM BUFFALO N.Y.,AND WE KNOW ALL ABOUT IT!!!!
|
AN "AWESOME" 53 BUICK ROADMASTER. THE CUSTOMER SPARED NO EXPENSE ON THIS GROUND UP HOT ROD. NO DOUBT YOU WILL SEE THIS GEM ON THE FRONT COVER AND/OR CENTERFOLD OF THE BIG BOY HOT ROD MAGAZINE. SEE MORE SHOTS IN THE KUSTOM KARS SECTION COMING SOON. THANKS.
