Hello, I am new to this process but here is my dilema. I am reviving a 78 vw bus that we've had since childhood. Its been sitting for about 10 years. It means alot to me and trying to get it going for my dad again. Well the biggest challenge is the body. Im in South Texas near the coast with plenty of rust. The rain gutters have nearly all rusted down to the roof upholstery in some areas. I was wondering if there was a solution that was cost effective. Any ideas will help..Thanks. LS

If it's rusted that bad the only real choice is to cut it out and weld in replacement or patch panels.
Surface rust can be sanded, primed, filled, etc, etc.
