I have been working on my car trying to get all the rust out and get it ready to paint but I needed a change of pace from sanding the exterior. So I decided to see if I had rust on the inside. I have heard a lot of Amazon owners with holes in the floorpans and seen one that looked like Flintstones as he could see the raod goingby as he drove.

Pulling up the carpet, I did indeed find rust forming. So I decided to go crazy and get it done right. I took all the seats out, pulled up the carpeting and underpad and scraped and scraped.

In the back floorwell, it looks like the water bottle my son spilled last year had made it through the layers and was just sitting there, starting to rust.

In the front, the passenger side was wet and felt a little oily. I think there must have been a heater valve problem sometime in the past.

Here is the passenger side.
