Some notes to answer a few of Dave’s questions:

- The rust on the rear bumper is surface rust that is caused by the humidity here in Florida. It will require continuous maintenance. To minimize the humidity’s effects, a car cover will help tremendously in absorbing moisture. Also, a dehumidifier placed in the garage with the car is good practice. We have a special rust polish (a preventative coating) that we’ll use on the rust spot(s). The chrome on the car does have to be chrome-polished every so often.

- Rust was discovered in the snaps that secure the convertible top boot. This can be corrected by replacing the snap boot screws with all stainless steel screws. This will be noted on your project sheet. There is rust polish that can help as well.

- Concerning the color of the car, the paint on it now is not the original paint nor matching color. The original color was a light mint green.

- We haven’t determined if the Mustang is numbers matching yet but we will find out pretty soon. We are in the process of a full inspection. From this, we will develop an extensive project sheet. You will have access to the project sheet too and from it, we will plan together the details of what you want to have done.
