Yes it is tough stuff, not sure if the stripper is softening it a little but I find I can scrape it off with some elbow grease.

[FireKraka]

Got it all cleared off and coat off rust killer on

Leave it bare metal and clear it

[FireKraka]

Didn’t even think of that Blacky
Next it to turn the roof over and clean the underneath and the pillars.

You’re doing lots of good work there Neil, but it’s an FB, it’s worth it.

[FireKraka]

Trying not to play favourites Trev seeing I’ve got one of both now, don’t want to upset Frank

[FireKraka]

Weekend up date.
Roof stopped again of rust converter
Keith came and applied some etch primer.
Then we turned it over so I could cleaned and rust converter underneath.

Looks like the roof change is going to happen at Easter

[Errol62]

Looks pretty straight, but you’re going to skim bog later, right?

Hi Clay yes Keith was pretty happy at how straight it is but yes he is going to spray putty or whatever it is the body gurus do once we glue it on.

[Blacky]

That's a top quality EKMart roof section right there, it wont need any bog maaaaaattee

Came from the dry country about 450km north of Kalgoorlie

Discrete sales pitch right there……….

[FireKraka]

Without EK Mart this wagon, named the Reverend by Blacky cause it's holey , would have been scrap so I suppose I have to thank whoever did cut that roof off and brought it back, if it was you Blacky then well done, wish whoever had left a little more of the A and B pillars though

[FireKraka]

Wire brushed the inside and rust killed Keith’s happy so Easter hair should be a go.

Fitted the tailgate just to see how it fits because it’s not the original
