But it sounds like the torches you're working with are probably shot. The fact that they've got a lot of surface rust and are rusted through in places would indicate that the remaining metal is going to be very thin when you're done. I would suggest cleaning them up as best you can and paint them with Rustoleum, then I like your idea of converting them to flicker bulbs, that would be cool! Here's a link to a place that sells Kreem: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/72/7407/ITEM/Kreem-Fuel-Tank-Liner.aspx?SiteID=CSE_GBase&WT.mc_ID=80003&zmam=88421133&zmas=1&zmac=2&zmap=7407 [ Edited by: TikiTres 2008-07-04 15:46 ]
