roof gutter removal

[kra710]

I was seriously considering it for my bus since there was so much surface rust, but the work involved and the fact that when id crack my windows for some air at speed water would pour in changed my mind, I was going to do it myself then got estimates, waay tooo much to make it look right, pretty much all you do is seperate the gutter which is welded pretty good and smooth over with fiberglass, which i can imagine invite rust since even when you remove all visible there is rust still deep within the metal that may surface back. Ive seen 1 bug done right and it looked great, but now i know the work involved i dont think its worth it, but thats just me, sissal wheel that junk, itll make it look rust free again

I forgot to say the guter is pretty much GONE it look like the dude that did the work put like some thin sheet metal in and FILLed the gutter in with bondo but the thing is on the left side the gutter is perfect. If I get a new rear quarter do ney ones come with the part that you bend over the oute rskin of the roof? that will fix half of the gutter if so

I think you will find it very difficult to find a rear NOS 1/4, but then again you might as your in the USA, here in the UK theres NO chance of finding one
