Slow progress at the moment as I've recently purchased this:

Driver side arch done:

Again, any rust was treated, primed then painted.
Now for the bulk of the underside; it's a pain to get thoroughly clean due to all the nooks and crannies but again, degreased, rust ground down and treated, ready for paint:

As you can see, I've treated the rust differently on these bits. It's been ground down and then painted with Bilt Hamber's hydrate 80 which 'converts' the rust. Now although I never usually trust these kind of treatments, I've tested this on a couple of pieces of scrap and it's good stuff! Again, this isn't concours.
More Honda news, I sold the Executive today so here are the 'finished' shots of it:

I've given the important parts 2 coats with only 1 coat on the 'top' panel that completely covered by the tank.
