Re: t-top pinchweld/ weatherstripping area...

I would personally cut some small strips of metal weld it then grind.You may just be able to treat it with some por15 or rust bullet to prevent rust from coming back.Then i would dry fit a good piece of the old seal to see if it will stay in postion good enough.just use a little extra gasket adhesive in that area.I assume you know the lip just holds the gasket in place..Good Luck let us know how it works out.
