HQ GTS Coupe Rust Repair Nightmare! Cutting off the Quarter Reveals 3 Layers of Hidden rust.

In this episode, I dive into the left-hand rear quarter of my HQ GTS Coupe — and what I uncover is exactly what happened on the right-hand side: rust on rust on rust… three layers deep. Plus, a rat's nest! The entire front section of the rear quarter comes off, and behind it is nothing but decades of hidden corrosion. With replacement inner panels no longer available anywhere, I hand‑craft new structural inner sections from 1.5mm steel, including the area that incorporates the factory jacking point. This is serious structural work, and every step needs proper fabrication, rust removal, and precision fitting. What I cover in this video: Cutting off the outer front section of the HQ rear quarter Discovering multiple hidden rust layers, old patch repairs, and badly corroded steel Hand‑making custom inner structural panels that can't be bought Cleaning up the remaining steel, rust‑treating, priming, and enamel‑coating Test‑fitting each new section one at a time due to the thickness and shape Cutting off the left-hand sill panel — and finding an unexpected rat's nest inside. You just never know what you will find when rebuilding these old beasts. (No rats were harmed in the making of this video!) If you're into classic Holden restoration, rust repairs, panel fabrication, or just love seeing old Aussie metal brought back from the dead, this is the build for you.
