Dear List-
As I very slowly deconstruct Rusty for his eventual restoration, I noticed
that the frame is pretty intact (as opposed to the floors, sills and fender
botttoms). I did find that the outriggers that the floors bolt to are rusted
through. VB and Moss both list replacements that can be welded in place, but I
have not ordered any yet.
