A customer of mine in is doing a 67 912 resto from tub up. The early 912s had the same issues with rust we do and even has foam in them too (just like our 914s).
He used a company in Ohio to dip the car and dissolve the crud (he did scrape off the tar) ans ecoat the entire car. He did the doors 1st to see if he would like the results, and wow! Looks like new metal. Looks like Stoddard will be doing a full write up on this car at some point, but I was so impressed with the results that though I would share. Attached thumbnail(s) |

I had this Mercedes done over a year ago. It is sitting in E-coat now. Cost was around 3k. They cook the shell at 800 degrees. To remove the thick rubberized under body coating and the tar boards in the interior and u der the car before the dipping process. This turns the stuff into ash before the acid bath. There is no way I could come close to the end result of this process by hand with any amount of money.
