Hello Esahlin - I new I should have purchased the car tilter for working on the undercarriage, next time I'll change the trunk pan instead, my back is so sore. We took your advice and removed the rear inner panel (behind the tail panel) to see what rust may have been lurking there. It wasn't that bad but the braces for the gas tank where rusting badly, only a small portion on the end, so Ed fabricated the brackets and we were able to sand the surface rust out on the trunk pan - At first we thought we went to far remnoving this panel, but with A welder I guess there really never is a too far if you have the patience to work on it. But futher inspection on the gas tank brace we were glad we removed it. The metal used for the brackets came off his 69 Camaro original rear panel that we changed last year - I knew his Camaro would be good for something - HAHHAHA

Steve

P.S. Thanks for the advice on the paint.
