Some Rust Issues

I'm getting the rust taken car of on my 73.5. Ok - most of the rust. Keep in mind that this is really a good solid car but it is an early 911. I had a new owner tell me last night that he just bought an early 911 barn find that has no rust. My comment was "You just haven't found it yet."






This was caused by a rear window seal that dried out and allowed water to drip into the back seat area. I'm getting the rear shelf done as well as this seat area. We're going to use panels from Restoration Design to start the process. There's still a lot of fitting, cutting and welding that has to be done with these panels. Restoration Design must be a good product though because I heard no complaints about the quality of the rear shelf. This shop has done a lot of work for the Collier Collection so they understand perfect.
