What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2021]

Bench tooning for a freind

Got my shop room remodeled a bit and cut down a former display board and hung it from the wall in a dead corner.

You can A: buy a sacrificial winter beater or 2: do what they do back where I come from and ignore/neglect and eventually discard the vehicular.

Or C, undercoat it and wash the vehicle regularly 😜

Undercoat is better than no undercoat, but, it's not a silver bullet for rust.

Realistically you need to spray it before the car gets driven around to keep dirt out from underneath. Spots get missed. Coating cracks over time and allows rust to fester and rot behind the rubberized coating. Not everything can be sprayed if you want to work on it decently. You need to drill holes and add plugs in the body which hold up OK in door jambs but can come out underneath. So on so forth.

Then consider the mess. Gets even worse with coatings like fluid film that wear off.

Side project, you can never be restoring too many cars

I tinker with Chainsaws, bought this one and cleaned it up. Opened up the Muffler and pulled the restrictors off the carb, this is the MS362 Pro Saw, and it runs damn good.

Oh I've got buddies like that lol I have the few I have tuned up incase of hurricane cleanup here where I live in Florida, what I have should work well. I know people who are in competitions with them.

Lol yeah the poulan needs some help. Something is goofy with the carb and I can't get it started. I really do need/want to get it fixed for winter. It needs some help.

That's normal for them, they are trash if you run a saw a lot. I had one for light duty a long time ago, got it cheap, and it lasted 2 years.

What I run now for 90% of everything is my Stihl MS261 Pro Saw, muffler modded and carb restrictions taken off. Shreds things on the green chain and it's the small saw of what I have.
