After cleaning up as much I could by hand I used a paint remover
The bare metal looks really good besides little surface rust on the sides
What should I use to neutralize the rust prior primer?

Hi Antonio. Check out the POR15 product line. It will work nicely for your project. Mark

Hello
My car did not come with the bumper guards on the front or rear
Wife wants them and my job is to make it happen LOL
Where can I get 4 Bumper Guard, I was thinking using 4 (front ones) I dont need with holes in the rear, already chrome would be great

Stoddard has nice reproductions but decent used ones can be found if your wife is willing to be patient.

Thanks, I book marked Stoddard on my 356 for future orders
Because I am keeping the old patina on the chromes, used one would look much better
