As shown on my build thread, I am working on the rear of the body, including the trunk lid. This is a donor lid I got last year to replace the rusty original.
Now with the work I was doing to straighten the new lid edge, I found rust where I thought was clean--should have known better. Attached thumbnail(s) |

My frunk lid had spots that looked a lot like that and I was able to patch them. I also made up a wand attached to a pressure bottle sprayer that I ran through the channels to treat the guts with ospho.
