i have the engine out of my 66 mustang. found some rot where the lags hold the motor
down. using a small drill it does not appear to go but a few inches for and aft of the holes.
from my reading here i am inclined to cut the glass off the top get the rot out back to decent wood treat with cpes then bed new wood with epoxy. opinions welcome
should i simply buy that west stuff thin with acetone for the treatment then use it
normally mixed to bed the new wood and the new glass top.
i dont like the glue a dowel in the hole idea. thanks philip

Phillip,
Soaking the holes with CPES is an option as well as a thinned mix of anyone's brand of epoxy. Give it a try.

Where are those pictures you promised?

You might want to use aluminum angle under the motor mounts after you cap off your repair. The angle will help spread the load.

Thanks for the pictures. Well, you do have some work ahead of you but I have a feeling it will turn out fantastic. Keep us informed on the progress.

That’s a 69-70, not a 66.
