Restoring my fathers old hunting Jeep

So to get the mill scale off I sprayed the panel with white vinegar, laid some paper towels on it and sprayed again then covered with plastic and let it sit for 24 hrs re wetting 2 times. Then I hit it with scotchbrite and rinsed with soapy water. Pleased with the results, the other sides are soaking

 

Progress today welding it together, then I have to wait for the stake pockets to get here

 

Other side is on







Also started making spare tire side supports

 

So I'm pretty pleased on how the bed came out, I have to cut the pocket holes in the top rails then it's off to the body shop.........which is pretty much where it sits

 

Pretty much wraps it up for the fab work. Bodywork starts this weekend














My shop mate just doesn't get the whole jeep thing

 

Just gonna leave this here.......

 

Yeah......I didn't believe it when I wrote it either lol
