old springs

["Ed & Marsha Prytherch" <mred2u@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jon:
I parted out a 70 spider with rusty springs. I banged the rear springs
together to knock off some rust and one of them snapped into two pieces. I
wouldn't trust rusty springs.

>So,  I'm scratching my head on whether to derust and paint the springs,
just toss them back in,  or just toss them and buy a new set.   The
amount of work it took to derust and repaint just my spring pans is
giving me pause on the springs..  ;-)<
