Well without a sign it happened!  My brother was poking around the right
front rocker panel right behind the front jacking anchor and he pushed a
quarter and a half size hole in the lower body panel  !!!!  The acrylic
repaint on the out side showed no signs of rust damage???  The guy who
did the repaint said he saw no rust there when he did the repaint and you
sill can not see any signs of rust from the out side other than the hole.
 I belive it rusted from the inside out,  There were leaves and other
various organic matter in the void where the hole was.  But we still
can't find out where it came from.  I think maybe the sliding door or
maybe a drain hole that was painted over.  I hope there are no more of
these in hiding!!!  Is this a common rust spot on Vanagon's?? In any
event how do we prep, fix, and prevent this from happening again?  He has
some seam rust and i am thinking of getting all fixed at a body shop in
NY.
