Hi, Guys I am a newbie at this forum
I have a 1955 3100 second series 1/2 ton big cab window That I am restoring,
I am doing all the work my self, from patch panels body work rust removal,
I am doing all the body prep, I decided not to dip the cab, or sand blast it.
I will sand Blast the frame, maybe dip some doors, finders, I have been using ospho, klean phosphoric acid to get rid of the rust, under the dash and paint it with self etching primer, my question is how to get all the rust out from under the dash with out media blasting and dipping it's hard to get to under the dash or will I need to spend the time and have it blasted. or just a wire brush and some time and neck strain. here are some pictures of what I am working with any help would be appreciated.

-Larry
