    Pete – you are the man. The man. The old boy who taught me to do body and frame work started out repairing dents and dings with hammers, shoes and lead. He would think you are the man. Er, I just said that.

    @JestersWord75 Yeah, I know what your talking about… It is a vynal type filler , Kinda like that ICE stuff. I don’t like it, because it’s too expensive, like you said, and it’s really not bondo. It’s more like the evercoat filler I use…. Nascar APROVED–HA HA, Thats Funny…

  15. , Do you ever use …
    , Do you ever use that 3M body filler thats in a tube. Actually its two tubes side by side and it’s black. Im sure you know what I mean. It says approved by Nascar on it. I like it but too high dollar to use on old junkers like I have. I think it like $40 for a small tube. Might be good for gas tanks.. Get R Done Pete!

  16. Get all the rust …
    Get all the rust out and there is a product you can buy to put a coating inside the tank. I cant remember the name of it but i have heard it works well.

    i’d like it painted the same color as the car Pete.

  18. Do not shimey sham …
    Do not shimey sham it! I think I would have put a rag in the hole where the sender and filler tube goes so you don’t clog your fuel filter on your first tank of gas, but maybe you plan to have it cleaned afterwards anyway since its an old tank.
