This car was a ill. car and it has rust problems! We will be removing the rust from the floor and the lower front firewall and the door post, as well as the rocker panels and the rear door post. rear wheel wells, trunk pan and a new core support. we have a donar car that we will be taking what we need off to keep from using aftermarket panels as much as possible.
