Please help. I pulled the fenders off my '70 to find this:
From what I've read, this is caused by a buidup of leaves, debris, etc collecting from drainage through the cowl. There should be someplace this normally drains to, but that place has probably clogged. Can anyone tell me where this normally is supposed to drain? The only thing I could find is a 3/8" diameter hole just in front of the bottom rear fender mounting bolt. It seems like that would be blocked by the fender.
I found this thread on repairing the area for a 1st gen: http://www.stevesnovasite.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43544
Does anyone know of a good thread with pictures of repairing this on a 3rd gen? I have no problem MIG welding sheet metal, I just want to get some ideas on where to cut and how to prevent this in the future.
Thank you for any help!
