Re: '50 chevy 3100

Someone went through a lot of trouble to bondo over a lot of areas, and yet half the floor was rusted out. So either this truck got rusted.. fixed up.. and then rusted again... or someone started to fix a really rusted truck and then it continued to sit for who knows how long. The paint was cracked and faded all over so it's been awhile. I've also run across areas fixed with lead instead of bondo. I'm thinking at least two different POs worked on the body at some point. I've found blue and green when taking off the paint. I'm thinking the blue was original because I can find it in hard to get to spots or from areas that needed to be opened up to paint. Like under the hood.

I was real scared when I first started gping over the body. I think 1/4 of the hood had bondo! I was expecting to be messed up. Just another tiny spot...

I wish I had just gotten it blasted.
