Does anyone know a good body shop that can do corrosion problems in the body? I am in Northern Virginia. Mike

 

Hey.
Where is the body rust, it's an old truck, perhaps you could some repairs yourself? I use a steel brush tip on an electric drill, then sand paper, then rust solvent (acid, turns it into primer-like substance, then a little putty, and you can get aerosol can primer and paint by Rustoleum or such. One sunny day in you driveway and you're done, unless your rust damage is major. Other than that, there is a couple of places that are affordable in Falls Church and in Arlington. You can PM me if those locations are good for you. Two of them are on the same street.

 

the rust is in the fender wells and door openings and the rocker panel. I installed safari guard rock sliders and there is corrosion behind them. My son had the car in Vermont for the last 3 years and I just got it back and am just going through it. My list is growing rapidly. Let me know the places that you are referring to. I live in Arlington. Fall Church auto body actually put a new roof on it when a tree landed on it about 12 years ago. Mike

 

I pm-d you.

 

Thank you for the information. I will try one of the shops after I finish surveying the damage. Mike
