so i removed the rear clip on my 87GT this weekend in an effort to repair the frame rails. once i got the clip off, i realized that the rust wasn't as bad as i initially thought and i don't feel it's bad enough to have to cut and weld in new. that was a huge relief to me since i don't know how to weld and would thus, have to get someone to do it for me. my basic strategy at this point is to prevent any further rusting of the rails. I plan on using a wire brush to knock the rust off where i can reach and thenusing por15 or an equiv.... however, i cannot get up inside the rails to knock off the rust or to apply any type of paint....does anyone have a suggestion of a product that i could use to get up inside the rear frame rails to eliminate the rust? thanks in advance

Eastwood does an aerosol version of their rust converter product. I don't know how good it is though, seems watery when compared to the old two part stuff I had (which is awesome). Maybe get something similar and 'spray' it in. You can get recharable aerosol cans from places like Harbor freight.

The "Rustproofing places" use a type of "wand" they stick through a hole, & has a "spray end" that literally sprays in every direction at once, you could use a converted pump up sprayer & rust converter, or even old motor oil ( of course with the oil, it might be a bit "messy" till it "drains".

thanks guys for the quick responses....so i think i might get one of those cheep garden sprayers and altering it to spray like that....then using a rust converter and spraying it up in the rail.....i think that's the ticket....

let me ask...would i only need to spray the converter up in there or would it be best to follow it up with say some rustproofing paint or maybe a rubberized spray? thanks

I use the kit JCWhitney sells. Have done all my cars. My 94 Interepid still does not have a speck of rust on it..
Don't see it on their site anymore though. Humm
