Since we have been trying to bust ass on my car and get it all in primer in the next few weeks, I decided to start messing with the front hood. I knew it had a few rust bubbles, but shouldn't be that big of a problem. After I got the paint all stripped and was cleaning things up, I noticed that this hood had foam? in the very nose of it. Now I know where the rust came from and why the hood on my other car is rusting in the same place!!!! Does the hood need this foam or am I better off digging it out ??
There's a chunk o'foam in the rear trunk lid too. Right at the center above the lock. Right above where you put your fingers to open the trunk.
Ask me how I know.....
Ken with the lacerated fingers.....
PS. had the trunk dipped/stripped and they got rid of the foam and all the rust in the fold area at the rear of the trunk. No more lacerations
Best 65 bucks I spent.

The foam was there for stiffness. A cynic like myself might say that it was designed to promote sales of replacement parts.
