Here is a shot of the eng bay with the new panel fitted to the pass rear wheel well, this had a 2x3 inch hole before being patched.

Rear pass corner before i removed the patch thats was done before i bought the bus. The hole below the tail light was for some sort of electrical connector, i patched this as you can see in the last photo.

Here is the patch removed and now you can see the rust that was covered over, like before nothing was removed before they covered it.

Anywhere you can see a patch that was done by the old owner i will be replacing it,removing the hidden rust and instaling new metal!
