Nup - he means the seams that make up the joins between the roof and the rest of the car, along with the 4 seams running down each corner of the car. this is where the major body panels meet and if rust gets in there it can be exy to repair. All panels can be repaired, but as a general rule, the flat panels are the cheapest, the harder the access to a panel the more they cost to repair. |
