We spent several hours today fabricating patch panels for the trunk lid. The bottom edge of the lid was rusted in several places. Yesterday, we removed the lid's lower structural panel, exposing the rusted areas. The patch panels, shown in the photo to the right, will replace the entire bottom edge. After the welding is completed, the welds will be ground down flush with the existing metal, filled and primed on both sides. Then the structural panel will be re-installed. Paxton will be welding the panels in place this weekend.
Stay tuned,
Tom McCurry
