26. Wire tuck right side
25. Rust hole repair
An important challenge in this rehabilitation plan is closing the holes in the base of the wiper. About 20 years ago, I noticed the condition of the part when I swap to the turbo engine, and at that time I only treated it with rust prevention. A small hole was visible from the engine room side. So I decided to repair it this time.
Cover the cleaned engine compartment side, remove the top cover and peripherals, mask the windshield, use a wire brush to roughly remove any rust around the holes, and then reapply the rust inhibitor. Use a repair putty to close the hole. Rough polishing, putty application, polishing, thin putty, and polishing are repeated many times to prepare the surface, and finally painting. Finish with a glass coating. It completed!!
Finish painting was done.
The surface is now in good condition.
Also fill in the holes for the connector brackets.
The surface is gradually forming.
Cover the holes and repeat the process of arranging the surface.
Next on the right side since I got a feel for it on the left side,
Smoothed the surface and applied the topcoat.
The top surface has become beautiful.
Repeat the process of sanding and spraying.
Apply 2-component curing putty from the front and back.
Remove the bracket because it is no longer needed after conversion to turbo & injection.
The bracket for the air solenoid control box. This is no longer necessary.
It also covers the engine room side.
Cover the glass and surroundings.
I don't want to see it...
Pull out the air controller box to access it.
It looks like the rust prevention state is maintained.
Remove the hood, wiper, cover and rubber seal.
The under the rubber seal is rusting and has a hole.
