On Thursday I spent 5-1/2 hours doing prep work and painting the undercarriage of the '57 tub. I decided to use Rustoleum paint as the panels still had a majority of the original paint still intact with very little rust showing. I figured applying the Rustoleum would be more "fit for purpose" than going with POR-15.(which I would consider overkill)...the process took me longer than I originally anticipated due to the fact that there was a considerable of amount of prep work required to remove the dirt and oil that had accumulated.
By examining the floor boards I can make the assumption they have been replaced in the past 20 years or so?
I also found a very interesting website that shows a Mazda Miata conversion on a MGB. It gives me much of the background as to the mechanics of what is involved and I think, a good resource for information-the Internet is great for garnering information on almost any topic...
Today I am going to finish off the balance of the under car painting and make arrangements to move the tub closer to the garage door...
