Rust is the problem with this joint, not corrosion! Paint the mating surfaces well. I also ran caulk on the seam, feathered it out and finished it with paint. It's not perfectly finished and I doubt

John, sorry, but I have to disagree. Aluminium (sorry - aluminum) is the weakest of the two mating materials and therefore the main problem with this joint will be the aluminum which will suffer from

Jaap, the word "weakest" in your response can be interpreted as meaning the material that is structurally less strong. Comparing aluminium/aluminum to steel, yes, it is structurally weaker. But what

I was going to be pedantic (as usual) and point out that rust IS corrosion, but decided not to. I think John has a good point, at least in my case. When I separated the pan and the shroud there was a

In my limited experience from having owned two 1962 tricarbs I have found that the riveted aluminum lip and aluminum boot section to be fine. The steel floor pans, however, were rusted though in both
