After removing all the tar undercoating from the rumble lid I could now weld up all the cracks around the hinges and in the center. Someone had converted this to a trunk lid at some time past and in order to put in a latch they cut out the inner panel in the bottom center. This let the deck lid flex so it cracked right down the center. Today I reproduced the piece they cut out and welded it in and then welded up all the cracks. A little finishing touches and the rumble lid will be ready for primer. First pic is the missing piece, next is the replacement, then a welded crack by the hinge.
