Today I have finished the inside of the left hand fender and treated it with the POR15 Rust Prevention system. Go to the button for pics or click here. You will be able to see the difference very easily. The inside being ready is just the first part of the process for the fender, I will have to fit it to the car and line it all up with the door etc. I will apply some POR15 underseal as well just to go over the top and be safe and add that final layer of protection, at the time of writing this I don’t have any but I will soon! Once that is done I will then start the process on the outside to remove any minor lumps and bumps and treat the small area of surface rust at the very bottom of the fender on the outside. The advantage here is that I will be able to cover it with the running strip that was originally on the car.
Secondly I have added a tool review for a pair of wire strippers. There was a hard lesson learned here when I bought my first set of wire strippers. Have a read and find out why. Go to the button for the review or click here.

About One man and his Mustang
I'm just a man with a Classic 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe and a collection of tools that just keeps getting bigger in order that I could do the job right. When I first started this blog this is what I wrote:
"I had bought a project car, that had been neglected, set fire to, rusted and abused. As a result of that she needed a bare metal strip down, a nut and bolt restoration."
Four and a half years later the car was completed, on the road and shown at the UK's premier Classic Car Show, everything that was done to that car is documented here.
I now have the privilege to drive one of America's most recognised cars and a true Icon, the Ford Mustang. I'm still sane after the blood, sweat and tears, so would I do it again? Oh yes!
