Default Acid dipped xjs bodyshell

Take a look at this build. Its not acid dipped but some kind of organic Soup that eats Paint, rubber, rust but not steel.

Is that a roll bar or a frame to keep it from flexing?

I know someone who did this with a car from the 1930's. The guy owned a metal treatment company. It did a great job of leaving only the metal like this one, but he found that the material in the tank continued to slowly seep from joints throughout the body long after he painted on the primer. I don't know what they did to clean out the joints. They didn't have a tank to flush the stripper. Sometimes these time and effort saving ideas go horribly wrong.

Nice and interesting photos!
