Roof Rust Repair - Hoosier Garage, Auto Restoration
A common problem on many old Dodge Vans, and many vintage cars is the seam where the roof pinches to the A-pillars on the uni-shell. Moisture slips into the unprotected pinch and starts returning the body back to nature. We try to reverse it with a good healthy cut and weld with a touch of rust proofing.
