Within the newest installment of Mark’s Trans Am challenge, he addresses the rotted-out tail panel. Earlier than putting in an aftermarket substitute, he begins by chopping out the unique half and treating extra rust within the surrounding areas.

As all the time, it’s fascinating to look at how meticulous and thorough Mark is when he works.
