1966 VW Beetle Convertible - Bottom Rocker Panel Repair Posted: Tue Mar 31, 2015 8:13 am     Views: 62      Rating: Not rated

Both the inside and out of the rockers were rusted. Any rusted areas on the inside of the rockers were cut away and fabricated panels were welded in place. Because this is a convertible, it has braces that run the full length of the rocker to strengthen the body, and as with most reproduction panels - the fit was hardly accurate. The reproduction braces that were purchased had to be extensively modified to fit properly.
