I really don't think you will need that when it's stuck sitting in a garage.

You have a point. He's just sitting inside drinking beer and whistling Dixie. At least that's what the pictures are showing to me

Grandmother in-laws 1917-22 touring car, she said the last time they drive it was in the towns Christmas parade and they drove it into the barn and has been there since, it sank pretty far into the mud, the whole rear axle and driveshaft tube were covered, all four wheel hubs were buried, I have it sitting on wood 4x4s for now to keep it above ground, all the upholstery is gone and so is the coils for the motor, speaking of which it still turns over as free as can be

[gert]

Well I’m shut down on MIG welding so let’s get some fiberglass work done while the better half is at work

Did you rough the plastic up before you fiberglassed it?

You bet, roughed it up with sand paper cleaned it with window cleaner to get the mud and grease off then put a layer of epoxy down before I put the cloth on followed with a layer of epoxy over the top to soak the cloth real good

Going to wait on this to cure to see if I think I need another layer of cloth for strength
