I got my puma last september and have spent around £1000 on it since. I just started working on the rust today, and after closer inspection I'm wondering whether it's even worth working on.
I started chiselling away some of the rust under the arch and as can see in the image the metal has just crumbled away to the point where there is a hole into the box section behind.
All of that rusted metal will quite easily just drop off. Now I'm wondering, do I continue chiselling away till the rusted metal has disappeared and I can see into the box section, and then paint with bilt hamber hydrate 80, or just leave it as it is, and paint with hydrate 80?
If I remove all of the rot, can any holes be filled with a filler?
I didn't think it would be as bad as it is, I'm wondering whether I should even bother at all. I love the puma and don't want to get rid of it, but the rust isn't looking too good!
