I might just end up doing the rustolem to be honest if it wasn't flaking paint off i wouldnt prob have even done it but the flaking paint looks bad.

so Ill wire wheel the frame quick and hit it with some rustoleom

Have you considered posting some pictures of that A/C delete install? There was a member on here today that wants to get rid of the A/C in his car but keep the heat.

So this is a picture of the finished product... I didn;t install it in the car yet. but pretty much u have to follow the poor instructions and trim the old stuff down and fit it to the new one and then bolt them together then drill the pre-marked holes which will attach to the fire wall...

today I installed the heater box... (will post a pic later) and took the door panel off to see why the locks are seized up. my feeling is the car sat much longer than 1 year without moving... more like 5 yrs at a minimum. The window regulators and such are all seized up as well as the lock actuators. so going to have to change all that

Heater box installed, no rust in the trunk that I managed to get open, and the frame cleaned up and ready for paint.
