Hello again, vanagonauts,

Last week I posted about removing window seals, and
after several of your suggestions I grabbed a steak
knife and went to it. That part was easy enough, and
I've had some good suggestions about the rust repair,
which falls into two camps, cold repair and
welding/brazing. Given the location, I think I'll go
with the cold repair - - POR-patch was suggested so
I'm getting some of that. Now my question is, given
the size of the holes, do I need to pop-rivet a piece
of backing metal into the holes? And do I need to
continue grinding to get all of the remaining rust
pits out? The metal is getting rather thin in a couple
of locations. I inspected the inside with a dental
mirror and no rust appears on the inside of the
panels. I finally got a couple of photos:

I guess it's not too bad, compared to the recent
postings on East Coast rust!

Thanks,

Gary
