You can see the steel structure when you remove the interior. Removing the interior isn’t a big job, except for the headliner.
With a mirror you can confirm if there is suspected corrosion between the frame and the skins. I don’t want to even think of what removing the skins would involve.
Ours had some very minor surface corrosion on the frame, we cleaned it up, measured, painted the whole thing with primer, and replaced the insulation with modern stuff (the original junk is basically mineral wool, which is great for holding moisture once it enters through either the storm window or one of the vents). Think SB208.
We redid all the interior plastics with SEM paint, too, since they were already out.
The unplanned effects of deciding to add an audio panel ;-)
We’re almost done…
This was posted by Jonny (Mooney CEO) online, seems it’s back to business somehow on factory parts (mostly an issue for new models)
