Good morning gentleman, first time poster from the wet state of Oregon. I picked up a nice '72 from Mikey914 a couple months ago. I've found virtually no rust so far and obviously I'd like to keep it that way.

My question, regarding the long's, is where are the places water can/does get into them? I get the hell hole opens up the top and water has a direct path, but without the hell hole, what other ways does water make its way in?

Thank you,
Ron

The rear tires pack mud, water, debris
Rockers should be removed and cleaned out as maintenance…. Annually or so

Great looking example, keeping her indoors also helps very much
