What can I do about the rust spots that have formed under the flow through ventilation vents on my '73 Beetle? I do not want extra new vents there. Thanks!

through ventilation vents on my '73 Beetle?
****** If the rust is surface & on the outside you need to sandblast it, metal prep, & prime (I prefer epoxy) & paint. You might be able to use a wire wheel (on a drill or dremel) instead of sandblasting. If there are already holes (rust through) you'll need to weld in new metal.

That happene to me!!!! Yep cut it out clean it up. I used Fiberglass cloth with POR 15 not the resin and it worked great. I was afraid to weld there was foam instulation in the wall so I went with the Por and cloth. It has been two years. Check out my car
