They were built to rust. They used a sponge type foam sealer between the quarter and outer wheelhouse. It soaked up water like a sponge and accelerated the corrosion process. Roger

I think what you got is still better Ken. Floors had rotted out and been replaced and not in a good way. I was touching carpet while laying under the car... I think fenders and patch panels on 1/4's are still easier than full floors !! Keep up the good work.

The car has sort been in that Limbo area for a couple of weeks.....Not much happening till the Body work gets rolling.....well.....I got a call today from Puleras that they had started on the loose pieces that I dropped off a couple of weeks ago....I stopped in to check it out........

Typical of Puleras...Friday afternoon is clean-up time....LOL....This has got to be the cleanest Body and Paint shop in the world....




The bottom of the hood is now cleaned and ready....



They cleaned up the rest of the door jam area and found a little more rust on the interior side of the door.....I'm gonna pick up the doors on Monday when I drop off the fenders and repair the rust area and fix the area's cut-out for those special Nu Yawk Stereo speakers......







We be rolling again...........
