The Born Again Bird

The Discovery

 

Originally black, then green, then finally white. As you see it here, it has been chemically stripped.
 
  This side view shows a disassembled carcass with a bad case of rust behind the door. We are now on our way to Dr. Fuller's old stomping grounds...
We see here why it was rusted out. The mess on the right is a rat's nest that accumulated moisture and over time rusted out the metal.
 
  You can never tell where the real problem is. Here you see about 1 1/2" of bondo around the right rear exhaust port. What is it covering up?
A big nasty hole is what. Needless to say, this is not concourse correct!
