C'mon Geoff, use your imagination. The guy that installed those pieces certainly did.

OK, so the junk in my car can't top that. But I think you get the idea. Someone riveted in a panel behind the battery, all the way around and down into the hell hole. Below the engine shelf even. Some of it is fiberglass. Then they dumped a bunch a bondo on top. Whether someone else can be more creative or not, it qualifies as a mess in it's own right.

I'm not Gint, but I can answer this question. Last week I picked up the body and right rear quarter panel from the stripper, and delivered them both to the body man/painter.

Not to hijack this thread but... I then picked up my shell - the green one seen here:

It looks great and I can't wait to start reassembly. It's only about a year behind schedule! Hope to be driving it before too much longer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

You got that one right! Apparently, the filler like stuff inside the tail light area was disturbed by the sandblaster and some of it fell out. This allowed rusting to start underneath. The paint that Brandon put on bubbled up twice before he discovered what the problem was. He treated everything underneath with Rust-Mort, welded and body worked in a patch, and repainted everything. Now it looks great - just like the left side. No bubbles this time. You can't tell there was ever a problem there.

I've got some digital pictures at home of this area after the final repair. I'll repost them on my own thread tomorrow.

You're welcome! Your tub looked very nice all clean and primed. I just went through this whole thread today for the first time. Our cars had similar problems. My rust didn't get to the longitudinal though. My right rear suspension mounting had been rusted away and badly repaired. So it had to have major surgery in that area. I also had some damage to the left front nose area.

Once I figure out how to post pictures here I'll start my own restoration thread. I've taken digital pictures of the whole restoration so far.
