I suspect the passenger side quarter panel. Is that the one you are
referring to? I haven't noticed floor issues, but I've not went over every
inch. Where do you suspect? Undercoating is definately there. Possibly
hiding some sheet metal or fiberglass work? The valve covers do have curved
ridges. Which one is the buck tag? Yep, the engine and engine compartment
need refreshing bad! That's the weakest area of the car.
