Can I have it primered or do it myself to keep it from rusting?(will the primer seal it?) What kind of primer should one use? Can you use spoting putty on top of primer? Thanks guys!   If the car is in a garage (assuming it is) just use some cheapo spray can primer.  If you plan on doing the bodywork yourself, go to an automotive paint supply store and get a 2 part epoxy primer, shoot the whole car with it and then do your bodywork.  The bondo sticks to it better than bare metal.  I left my 69 in the garage in bare metal form for a few months and it never rusted.   Tom
