I've thought about drilling holes in the rockers large enough
to at least get in and spray, then plugging them with rubber/plastic knockout
plugs like the ones used on floor pans.

Subject: [FWDLK] rust prevention - what
to do?
Ok, everyone agrees that rust prevention was not a priority back in
the late 50's and early 60's; and that there is a lot of untreated sheetmetal
in our cars. Now let's talk about solutions.
How exactly does one treat the inaccessible areas of a
vehicle's body, when doing a ground-up, frame-off restoration? How can
one get to all those untreated nooks and crannies when the body is bare,
short of dipping the entire body in one huge vat of POR-15, a
totally impractical solution?
My 300F convertible is now fully gutted and the body is
undergoing rust repair and prep for paint. I'd like to ensure that
rust doesn't return and, of course, now would be the time to do whatever can
be done. I am just not sure how to get to all
those inaccessible areas. I'd
appreciate any feedback and practical solutions from this
group.
Thanks ,
