Hi! I'm Doug and I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot
Rods and we are going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. Today we are
going to talk about a rust repair on 1990 Mazda Miata. The Miata is a real good car.
They are light, fast, they don't break. Everybody seems to like these cars. In the winter where
we live, here in St. Louis, they use a lot of salt to melt the snow to make the roads
safe. This car has suffered a little bit of rust, as you can see here. The car was originally
manufactured with drain holes underneath to keep the water flowing out of the rocker and
fender areas so that the water didn't build up and collect dirt and moisture and cause
this kind of rust. This car has no other visible rust on it. The customer has asked us to fix
this one spot, so we are going to cut this ugly piece out that you see, we are going
to treat the insides for rust with real good chemicals that we'll show you. And we are
going to weld a new piece and paint it. We are going to reproduce this rough texture
on it, paint it and make the guy happy.
