Group,
I got off lucky in the trunk, just some pitting. Flushed with success I crawled under the car and got a real shock. The floorboards were rusted all the way through. Thick open cell foam carpet pad and carpet did their job.  I know I've got to cut it out, but the rust seriously penetrated the longitudinal box beams.  I think the undercoating may be all that's holding it together.  I scoured the list but couldn't find a related article.  Is there re-bar and epoxy in my future?
Thanks,
John
