Hello, I am in the process of restoring a 68 GTO & upon removing the windsheild, a lot of the rusted metal came out with it! Anyway, what is the best way to repair this? The only way I can see is to weld in a lot of small pieces. Is there any aftermarket panels for this? Common problem? The rest of the car is very solid.
Thanks for the input

Had the same problem with a 69 conv't. Real bad cowl and windshield header rot. Try contacting salvage yards out west and see if they can locate the sections you need. Cowl section (not pillars) on the coupe and conv't should be the same, I think. I eventually got so fed up with the rust that I ended up buying a rust-free goat from an original CA owner.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
