We all know and love that foam the factory stuck in hidden places that traps water and causes rust... I knew about the front and rear of the inner rear fenders, and the ends of both trunk lids... Brace yourself, then check out the pic below! I was hoping to eliminate the foam during my restoration, but now it seems hopeless.
