Nice job!
Amazing how inconsistant the rust is between these cars!
In some places yours was bad, mine was good and in other places mine had holes...your car is perfect! Very odd....

yes i agree i think its the area my car was full of oak tree leaves to bad they didnt have e-coat back then . i am thinking of spraying bed liner in the cowl area any thoughts ?

Now that seems like it might be a great idea!
Never have to worry about it rusting again or leaking at a spot weld or something.
With the front panel welded on and the top left off you could spray the whole area to make it into kind of a plastic trough...
I'm actually at the point where I could do that myself too! :headbang:

I have a few questions about the window channel. When did you weld them in? what measurements did you use to make the glass fit right? what did you do about the top part where was once a seal for the rear door?

That's a whole lotta work man, persistent aren't you. You will definitely enjoy the ride knowing how much work you have put into this car. Keep the pics coming. I am too busy to work on my heap so I need my fix by looking at everyone else's projects.
