I was starting to clean up oiltank and found this little crack. It is in upper part of tank.
http://harrasteet.1g.fi/kuvat/OmaPossu+II/...27.3.12+011.JPG Should I solder it or just leave it like that? How to paint tank, how was it after it left factory? |

Where is all the rust? Very little rust in this 6-body (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Okay some accident repair and welding has to be done! Naked body (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) http://harrasteet.1g.fi/kuvat/OmaPossu+II/...29.3.12+015.JPG |

Is this oiltank copper? What is this paint then? It does not weight as much as copper should.

That was not so much work on your body.
Looks easy !! 1-2weeks work. I think you should epoxypaint the body as soon as possible. The oiltank is cooper coated so it will not rust. why don't you powdercoat it? Satin black. Niklas |

Its soda blasted so it is not so hurry with painting.
Do I have to take copper away before powdercoating? Its rust free and copper layer is solid. What paint would stay on copper? |

I had my oil tank specialty coated with a covering (gloss black) that helps PULL heat out or a distrubtion heat coating. It looked very good and in concept it can't hurt to help pull some degrees out from the oil.
I think the color came out nicely and I'm all for using new technology on these cars that was not around in 1970. Here is a look (crappy cell pic): ![]() Used these people: http://www.performancecoatings.com/index2.html Good Luck! |

Interesting coating and looks good! I already painted my tank old way..
Can some body help me to show my repair shop how to make those back and front boot sprayed seam sealings? Need pictures to show! If pictures are from silver -6 cars the better. If you like to help, send pictures to my email, jukkapoh @ gmail.com |

Sorry for that.
It is expensive to do sheetwork on cars in Scandinavia... The best is to do it yourself:) Niklas |

I made new deal today with local welder/painter (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Only problem is that he does not have "celette bench" but I can arrange that elswhere. It's going to cost little more than in Latvia but... Relieft! |
