    Default Rear Bumper removal and cleanup

    A while back I decded to tackle some rust and ugly area's in the rear of the bus. I suspect the previous owners had run on salted winter roads and never rinsed the salt off. So I had (and still have a few) areas that looked real bad.

    What paint did you choose to match that frame? Looks really really nice.

    Great job Andre. How many hours overall did you spend on the project. Did you sand blast the hitch? What type of paints did you use for re painting?

    That is painted copper fittings, all sweated togeather Greg.

    Brian found that out when he removed all his radiator plumbing on his Liberty to have it powdercoated, and couldn't.
