Rot

Post by G MR2 Turbo »

She’s done well for rot considering she’ll be 30 years old in December.

Got some rot forming at the top of the A pillar/t bar drain both sides. Simple as grinding out all the bad and filling in as smooth as possible then paint or is there some fix other than this?

Short video of the extent of the rot.

Noted. Good luck to me finding someone to do a proper job with all the grief I’ve had with everyone that has touched this car.
