My next big project on our new 1983 HR Admiral is to reseal the roof and the seams around the outside. Attached are a couple snapshots of examples of the deterioration of the side seams. My thought on the roof was that I might not be able to do a good job on it and should get someone that knows what they are doing? Is that right, or could I do it myself? I used to restore bug-eye MGs for a hobby, so I have some abilities mechanically.
The sides I thought I could handle okay, the windshield looks like it could use being taken out and reinstalled, the seams look like I could take a wire wheel and clean off the old dry cracked caulking and replace with a new silicone caulk.
Also, on the sides, I was planning to redo the caulking before buffing the paint and waxing? Or should I do it the other way around?
Suggestions?
(edited: Could a moderator move this to the remodeling section for me? Sorry I did not think about that section when I wrote it - thanks)
