There is solid evidence that this 40 was red, and a previous owner (poorly) prepped and painted it metallic green. I popped one of these bubbles and found... rust.

Pretty sure the entire rear floor has been covered with a piece of sheet metal... Which is also rusted.

The rust ate the floor pans many years ago. So what does the previous owner do? Why just take weld 1/8" thick steel plates over the rusted pans of course... It is the Dominican way! They are nothing if not creative.

Okay you get the point. Rust permeates this rig. It has spent it's entire life on an island in the West Indies (Caribbean) on the beach. I guess it goes with the territory, but I am dying to see just how deep it all goes. I wonder if I am going to end

The gauge panel is customize but getto of course. They all work... kinda. The only thing that still works in the oem cluster is the hi-beam and turn signal indicators. I don't really need a speedo the 3B won't get over 50MPH anyway.

These are my official "before" photos. I just began ordering replacement parts for the interior, body and steering. The first things in a very long list of things to do.
