I gave both front wings a coat of primer so they were protected from the elements. I also primed inside the headlight backing plates. (Not that they would rust at all, as they are now made from fibreglass, but just so it would all match).
I then primed the new valance again and made sure that the run-off lip from the valance was primed too.
Unfortunately in doing this, I ran out of all the primer I had.
The
bonnet really needs some tender loving care,
so for the moment I have sanded all the loose
rust off and treated it with Trustan. (The black
blobs you can see are rust spots which have
been treated) These will need rubbing down
fully and going over with several coats of
primer.
