Subject:85 Van-agony; wheel well rot
From:Judith Barr/Leo Girard

Hi all
Spent most of the day trying to plug good-sized holes in the fenderwells
right above each front wheel. Thirteen Canadian winters of salt and sand
hammering at the same spot has done 'em in. Wondered why there was moisture
in the footwells at times and why the seat belt stay had rusted. Now I know.
Anyway I thought I'd send a warning to vanagoneers in northern climes. I
wish someone had warned me about 3 yrs. back. The patch job would've been a
lot smaller & easier! "A stitch in time..."
My back ones are starting too.
Regards
