Reply to "Rust behind the front door"

I have a GT6 completely apart right now. Tack welding fresh 20 ga onto rusty 20 ga CAN be a daunting task. The car I am reviving has the small amount of rust as seen here, but after inspecting the inside of the left side rocker via the seat belt pocket seems to indicate light damage. This car never saw the light of day during the cold months, so rust may just be due to lack of surface protect inside the structure and just natural oxidation. My guess is that the owner will get some enjoyment this spring and summer after which I may have a mechanical "punch list" and may be asked to start some tear down to prepare for body/paint work. We'll see. I just know I have a cooling system upgrade to finish this weekend as there is going to be a visit by the "brown truck" with lots of stuff from the west coast. Sure wish there were matching tires for the f & r for 15x7 & 15x8 stock wheels other than BFG Radial T/As. Anybody use Coker tires?
