I suspect that your convertible spent maybe one winter back east before going west. The clean dryness of all the unaffected areas look like a lifelong california car. But I've had many southwest cars that were rougher but yet didn't have those rot areas you had in flange seam areas. Maybe the car was leaky new and some salty water got into those areas way back 50 years ago. then every car wash in california would let in a bit of moisture, that the caulking would keep wet even in the dry western atmosphere.
Anyhow I love watching this thread, you work metal the way this guy I know back here can, you've got the timsmith gift! And all those minor rust spots mean nothing, when you're done they will have never existed thanks to the quality of your work and the dry dry cleanness of the rest of the car.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
