bonvo Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 did some work today there were a few spots where the bed liner had chipped away on the floors and rust started to form so i sanded them down and hit them with some primer and paint pulled the back seat and killed the mildew that had started to form due to the leaking rear window then i peeled the headliner back and siliconed the back window from the inside hopfully that teamed with the silicone already on the outside will stop the leak till i can remove the back window and replace the rotted steel tomorrow interior goes into the car if it doesnt leak Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 sand it down to metal, buy that 15 dollar por15 starter kit and do that, then hit it with the bedliner.. never do it again :D Hey buddy when you moving to oregon? Quote Link to comment

(i know its kinda redundant to put the interior back in now but that makes less things that i have to pack) going to be up there in june or july. im hoping for june so i can catch canby.

bonvo Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 ok got to work on the interior today this is what i have been rolling around with for pushing 2 years now i wasn't going to put the interior together until the body work was done because i didn't want to rip it out , but with the move coming the more parts that are on the car the less parts i have to pack so in they go fixed the door panel with some silicon almost as good as new look interior still missing 2 panels but i need new clips before those go in Quote Link to comment
zerow Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 You've been busy. Like H2theizzo said, get the POR15, but wear gloves, that stuff stains... What panels are you needing? Panel clips can be sourced from a newer Corolla. Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted March 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 only panel i need is a good passenger door panel. i have all the rest. my dad is bringing me home some clips from work. today im thinking the carpet is going to go back in it but i want to make sure there are no leaks before i do that.
