Paint will seal it up Brett. Go to town on it with wire wheel and get plenty paint on it.

Hello Clay its Bretty here

.
Yes I cleaned it up back to shiny metal with a brush on the die grinder and its painted up well, but I think the workshop manual talks about sealing the weld with mastic or something. I wouldnt have used mastic, but one of the paint-able seam sealers if its necessary to do.

3M drip check sealer.

Good job Sunny Tim

Thanks very much Tim. Thanks Greg and Clay for your advice re gutters too.
Wow paint is looking tremendous. Will be very happy if mine comes up half as good

Now I'm worried I didn't put drip check or seam sealer in there. Not really.

Gee Tim, why you wasting that nice badge on a ratty old FB when you could put it on Freya's EK ute. ?

not surprised really. Good s/h one turned up on Gumtree locally last week for $200. I hesitated as I have one with one missing pin and a couple of ones with broken bars. It went in two days and the seller put one up with a broken pin for $180. I only paid $50 for mine. Would have paid the $200 prolly as I've got z few pineapplesburning a hole in my pocket oh well pardon the digression.

So if you're in 14 days ISO can I send some trim pieces over for you to polish?
