I have recently removed the carpet from my Imperial, and I am now in the
process of scraping the remnants off the floor pan so that I can address
the rust. What is that stuff? It looks like undercoating. Was this
normal? Was there paint under it--I can't tell, about all I can see under
it is rust or what could be either bare metal or
primer/paint. Surprisingly, even with as much rust as there is, yet again
no rust through.
Also, the bolts that hold the body to the frame (at least I presume that is
what they are for) seem to be quite rusty. Are these special bolts, and if
so is there anywhere that I can get them? I figure as long as I have
things to this state I may as well replace them (plus I would hate to have
them break when I really need them). Is there anything else that I should
replace while I am replacing the bolts?
Thanks,
Mark Elliott
