1992 conv top frame

[kmr4]

The frame on my top is rusting. Anyone know if a replacement can be found.
Any other suggestions.
Thank you for the input in advance.

Did you check with any parts vendor's like zip or corvette central etc.?

I am very fortunate that corvette central is only 1 mile from my office. I am not sure if I spend more time there or at my own business.
They do not have the metal frame. I have not tried zip yet. Thanks.

How about rust proofing. They make a product that when applied to rust converts it into (something) that is paintable and will not rust anymore. I get it from work and use it on everything around my backyard. I live on a bay so everything rusts, even stainless steel. It's called Rust Arrestor by INSL-X.
You just brush it on the rust and it eats it up leaving a sandable, paintable black coating.

MFI.......thanks for the tip...........I sure could use that stuff around here.

It's expensive. A gallon goes a long way though, like forever. Never pour any unused product back in the container, it will ruin the whole thing. And wear gloves, stuff is murder on the hands when it dries.

how about sanding it down and having it powder coated ?
