Full Version: trunk junk-good and bad
Looks familiar
Familiar? How so.
The shock towers seem alright, just dirt all in the seam sealer?
Pictures are kinda weak, but if that's rust around the stiffener in the center, yeah that looks bad, like cut the whole area out bad. We're a bit spoiled in the southwest I guess.

All trunks have / had rust. The rear tail light seals tend to let water in....
Car looks good otherwise. What about the longs and HH?

Needs some welding, still removing and inventorying parts, before I start the repairs to the body.
