Today when taking out my back seats i found the scourge of the G body, CANCER or rust a hole about the size of my hand

, it even goes up the fender!!

thankfully its the only spot with the stuff. but scary.

Ewwwww I'm OCD when it comes to cancer or ever just surface rust. That sucks but fixable with some good sheet metal work. Just don't throw fiberglass over it and think it's a fix.

Re: BIG surprise!!!

i had that damn vinyl top on and we patched the rust under that but i guess it came thru...

Have you pulled all the carpet up yet? If it's that bad there you likely have more hiding somewhare.

Time to cut it out and start welding in patch panels. Looks like the seam between the inner wheel well and body isn't in the greatest shape either.

its time to get a JOB lolo, harbor freight has a welder for 89.99 flux wire arc welder. i also gotta get a ac delete panel cuz i just smashed the ac box to smithereens with my trusty city worker tool

Do yourself a favor and save for a brand name Lincoln or Miller welder MIG welder. A flux wire arc welder is not for sheet metal. You'll do nothing but blow holes in the metal.
For sheet metal you really need a MIG welder with a CO2/Argon mix.

hm... we use MIG welders at school.

Buying a welder, is cheaper than hiring one!

Dont get down on yourself... your car can and will be a cancer survivor!
