Well, the hole itself was repaired, but I was just able to excavate as seen below. Surrounding area is ice pick proof. What are the best "fixes" to be done while keeping the car together? It does not extend into the interior either and the side runners are very solid (had been replaced too).

Andy is probably right.
BUT If you pull the rockers, be ready to find pristine outer longs. There are clamshell covers that have been for sale that could be put over bad rusty longs. Ideally, the rust is fixed before the clamshell is used. but that is not often the case. I looked at a parts car in York that I could put my fist through the rust holes (in fact I did just that trying to talk the dealer down to proper parts car prices). But the longs looked pristine due to the new clamshells. On this car, you could actually see the rust going under the clamshell, but you had to lay down and know what to be looking for. dealer wanted solid driver money, so I walked. Whatever you find is fixable. We are here to help. Some of us will even come over and help you fix it in person. If you promise good beer, not cheep stuff. :-) |
