Hi Ken,
I have some photos posted about a rusty TR6 showing the before and after.
Unfortunately there is no 1-2-3 procedure posted. Don't let the photos scare
you, my car was really in the "parts car" category and now it's back and
looking pretty darn good. I may have more photos that were not posted so
just yell if you'd like them. Most pages show the rusty and then click on
"Restored" to see it afterward except, for some reason, I never finished the
restored rocker panel". Oops. You can see more of the rockers if you look at
the floor section and the B post page. Check out
