The 1st thing to do on the 1st, It might be "long" but don't ignore it Options

Check your longs!! Mine had some piles of dirt come out (not necessarily picture below) but not that much. There wise a nice clod of dirt compacted around the jack point on the passenger side.

My car is, so fortunately, looking pretty good. I have rust in the hell hole. My firewall and floorboards look great. I am sure there is rust back in behind that long area though.

First is drivers side:

When I pulled the rocker covers off the 'BB', I stuck a piece of coat hanger wire up into the weep holes in the bottoms of the jack supports and was amazed how much dried up dirt came out.

I ended up drilling additional weep holes at the opposite lower corners of the supports and continued removing dirt from a different angle. Then I blew compressed air into one weep hole and even more dirt came out of the other. Now any moisture should drain better no matter whether parked flat, uphill, or downhill.



I wonder if drilling some drain holes at a few locations in the longs would be beneficial (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
