1962 Chevrolet Nova, Clean-up And Repairs

- Turn on subtitles/CC's if you'd like explanations on what I'm doing throughout the video. - Part 1: https://youtu.be/37FJXRjg_9Y?si=kemRcTsAjUBuPDfQ - This is the part 2 on the 1962 Chevy Nova I recently bought. Like most things I own, it needs rust repair. Admittedly, I did not realize how bad it was when I bought it, let's just say I overpaid a bit. Fortunately, these are pretty easy to find sheet metal for so I bought all the floors pans, though I did choose to fabricate a frame rail section from scratch. I also did some maintenance along the way and cleaned up the interior with some new pieces. My girlfriend thinks this car is cute, so i'm inclined to hang onto it for a bit.
