Nightmare - if the panel is too rusted -it may need to be completely replaced - get a pro to have a look and get a quote )

Hey guys, well all the around the seals in the boot have rusted through, most of it is minor except for a piece which is about 10 cms long~the rubber just hangs. I got two quotes for it so far, they reckon $550 for both quotes. At the mean time, fixing the rust on the floor. Just remember if you are welding. Take the fuel tank of, boy can that be a C**T. So far it is a success. Good luck with all the rust guys!
