[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 427218, member: 19781"] That wood on the side appears to be something that a previous owner bolted on. I'd just take it off and plug the holes. Before painting I'd suggest that your first step is to do a really good brushing inside and out. That will help your paint stick well and show you any areas that need structural work. missing rivets or leak repairs. Try one of these brushes. They work really well and don't dig in like wire brushes: https://www.amazon.com/Dico-541-778-4-Nyalox-4-Inch-Orange/dp/B00004YYD8/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1485362690&sr=8-5&keywords=nyalox+brush [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_0718.JPG"]89362._xfImport[/ATTACH] Wear a dust mask and do it outside in a breeze if possible.....
