Rust.............what can i do

I'm in the process of taken out my b18c of the donor car. It came from boston. So it has alot of rust. Not on anything major, just on every bolt and mounting bracket. What can i do about this with out buying or finding all new bolts and stuff. Some of the stuff i can sand down and paint. But not on everything.

To be safe I would just get new bolts...

To remove them use Liquid Wrench, PB Blaster, or try some good ole' WD-40 (might not help)...

Yeah, re-using rusty **** is never a good idea. You will either end up rounding them off trying to get them off the donor car, or round them off trying to get them off (or on)your car. Bolt dont cost that damn much

, go get some son!
