1970 Corvette
Been on the forum for a while and this is my first post. I have owned my Corvette for 40 years. Have done a lot of mechanical work on this Corvette. Now I am starting some cosmetic work, mainly paint and interior and some structural work on the birdcage. Have enjoyed this C3 forum and have gained a lot of information and knowledge and will be looking for help as I proceed. Thanks, Laz

I live in NW Arkansas now but previously lived in Buffalo, NY. The reason I need to do rust repair is because it is a Northeast car and had a lot of road salt action going on.
