Default Thanks to some mice

This is one that is a first for me. Upon doing some window channel sand blasting i found the package tray area undeer the dutchman panel was pinholes from rust. After investigating and blowing out a bunch seat cushioning it appears some mice packing the space and it allowed moisture to hold itself againts the angle section of the package tray as it leads up to the ledge the dutchman panel is spot welded too, or in other words the small section where the rear window sits on. Truly amazing spot to have found rust. Not a great spot to have to fix, but im shocked how good the reproduction panel was made. Almost a perfect exact match to the original panel. Sometimes these cars can throw you a real suprise during restoration.
