MORE AND MORE MISCELLANEOUS FIXITS (6 of 8)
Paint the Firewall
The area on the firewall surrounding the master cylinder was very rusty due to brake fluid leaks in the past. I thoroughly wire brushed the area, treated it with Metal Ready, masked it off, primed it with Rustoleum, and painted it with a can of repro rattle can saddle.
This was a good test of the color match of the repro paint. As expected, it’s not a perfect match, but it’s pretty close. All in all, it looks a hell of a lot better than before.
