Wondering if you reckon it’s worth taking to a rust repair shop and see if I can get a replacement panel? The bottom of the cowl has pinholes and leaked into the cab. I managed to clean it out as best I could then spray a lot of rust treatment, big it up with fibreglass filler, then bitumen paint and tape to try prevent water getting in there when it rains. But ultimately I expect if I don’t replace the steel it will slowly continue and might start making it’s way down the firewall.
Im not precious with this body so would swap it again in future but ideally I’d like to get this body to be rust free.
Other than cowl panel there is nearly no rust.

That last photo is of inside the cowl, you can see the windscreen wiper mechanism and then the rust in the trough of the cowl
