good to see your making progress.
you need to reprotect it asap , even if you have to etch prime it, that close to the salt water its gonna rust quickly.

you should prime it as soon as possible as the rust has already started even though you can't see it.I use a ppg / dulux product called dp40 ,its an opoxy primer so it hangs on like shit to a blanket so to speak. the bonus with dp4o is that it is ideal for restorations like you are doing becuase you can leave it on the cars surface until you do the panel work, then do a section at a time maybe a door or 1/4 panel but leave the dp40 on & give it a quick sand with 180 dry sandpaper add another coat of it as you can put filler straight over the top and guess what the filler will adhere better than if was on bare metal. You will probably say what no filler on my car but it is not a bad thing if it is used correctly and you use top quality fillers and stick to one brand of paint ,if you mix and match brands you might as well put house paint on it .
This is my advise as i do this for a living and there is nothing better than seeing the car ten years later and it still looks as good as the day you finished it.
good luck ......glenn.:alien
