Back at it.

So the 'Rona is dying off in my area and we're pretty cautious about opening back up. I decided to take a drive over to the shop and get some work done.

Other than a nice coat of dust on top of my car, everything is about the same as I left her. Thankfully I left one of my Makita batteries on the charger so she was ready for me when I got back to her.

As is normal, I attacked the rust where I knew it was, and found more.

This is the driver's left side foot well where the vacuum lines run. The corner of the channel was rusted through so I cut off the rust on the upright bit.






Vacuumed all of that crud out, and then started probing and cutting until I hit metal.

That's a nice big hole.
