Cleaning debris under quarter windows behind quarter panel 66 Coronet

[Sam69sat]

Anyone have good tips on cleaning debris below the quarter windows down low behind quarter panel. There's a small gap back there that's hard to reach down into and it's got leaves, dirt, and who knows what else.

I got a powerful shop vac, one that moves a lot of air. I rough rigged up an adapter made from a small funnel and duct tape that adapts smaller hose to the vac hose. I put on about four feet of clear plastic hose that I got at the hardware store, stuffed if down in there and vacuumed it out. Worked slick. Use the largest hose that will fit, you want to move as much air as possible. I was astonished at how much it sucked out.

I did mine by removing the interior panel which gave all the access needed

Thats what I did to. If the interior is stripped out you can also blow it out with compressed air.

Good idea. Thanks

Oh man, blowing it out didn't even cross my mind. Sounds like a mix of blowing and sucking then. Where's Kamala when you need her!

Do like l did. It is a little drastic but it worked

Might still come to that. I'm patching both lower quarters behind the wheel and a little on top of the wheel arches but i'm hoping to keep from cutting metal in front since it seems solid.

If you guys can’t take political ribbing you shouldn’t make political comments in a non political thread.
