The Rust Demons have seized my 91 crew cab truck!  I�m not having any
of that, thank you very much.  �Of course, you know, this means war,�
B.Bunny.   On their side: oxygen and water.  On my side: my truck,
this list, my ignorance (don�t knock it, not knowing how to fail gives
me inner strength), and an evening course in auto body work I will
take once a week using all their tools and 6 days to heal before the
next time.
I also found this info:
"OSPHO" http://www.ospho.com/ , for light rust conversion.
"Por15" http://www.por15.com/ , for heavy rust and body filler around rust.
"Harbor Freight": http://www.harborfreight.com/  , for inexpensive tools.
Last evening I �griddled my lions� and went forth to do battle against
the demons of rust.  Using an air hammer I removed the hinge pins from
my gates (mostly) with only minor tremor to my hearing, say 5 on the
�Queen� concert scale. Two pesky hinges wouldn�t let go resulting in
the removal of the hinge from the body of the truck in one case and
splitting the pin in the other.  Then I used the phew-matic grinder
cutter to sever the pins to release the hinge parts.  In a shower of
sparks of July 4th proportions I achieved this with the minor comment
of, �Instructor Sir, is my hair still smoldering?�   The center hinge
part, with the pin rusted in, will be drilled out next time unless
someone has a better idea. Having fatigued my brain at this point, in
what passed for thought I managed to insert my thumb betwixt the body
of the truck and the hammer I was wielding to create a chorus of, �OH
Poo� several times. Inspection and reflection follows. Final score,
rust demons two hinges, truck one thumb.
