Its not that bad on the inside, only a little line of rust right where the panels meet. But I should just get a new hatch and be done with it.

How am I going to do that through those tiny little holes?

youre gonna spend more money fixing it in the long run than it would be to replace it for $37 if the one youre getting is in good condition.

most people would fix it, but since youre getting it repainted anyway, and its about to go into primer, just get it replaced.

your harch is screwed..once that rust gets inot that seam at the back you can never get it out...you might be able to POR-15 it to slow it down but it will eventually bubble through.

I will just prime it for now, I have only spent $3 trying to fix it and if it dosn't work then I will just go get another one.

Well here is the hatch all primed and ready for some paint Looks better than the rust lol[8D]


Now then... Off to do the other parts of the body (drivers side first)


(sorry for the crap picture, was busy getting high off paint fums)[8D]
Time for the bumper and wing to get fixed now.








Tomorrow I am going to finish the body, finish the wing, and maybe prime the whole SOB car (damn car took chunks of my hand today[&:])
