sand back to metal filler primer lightly sanded back then on with the paint i want it to look its age but pull it up to date with the colour scheme so left some imperfections in the metal work. old but new there has been no rust to cut out or treat so far but im expecting it towards the rear end somewhere as thats were there prone to rusting
