Restoration of my families grocery getter

Decided to clean up the tailgate Door/ tailgate latch mechanism. Cleaned off the gray primer, got back to the steel, used the zinc paint to only touch up the rusted areas and the clear coated tge whole mechanism. Wait on a warm day here in Chicago, reinstall the latch mechanism and the window regulator. Once in need to do a heat shrink repair on the tailgate wire loom and I'll reinstall te glass.

The forecast for the next few weeks does not look promising for anything above freezing....At least down here in Indy anyways. I knew we were due a long cold winter as the past few for us have been pretty mild.

Garage is about 2' to short, or need to get the old house doors stripped and hung in the house. Another warm weather project.....
