The heater channel.
The heater channel runs all the way from behind the rear seat, along the side of the car (under the door) and all the way to the place where your feet go.
The heater channel is critical in the structure of the car...and our driver's side has to be removed and completely replaced with a new one.
Steve has begun preparing for this eventuality by bolting the door into proper position on that side...to hold it steady while we literally cut the bottom off the car.
The rest of the repair to be done is mostly plain body work...although eventually the passenger side will need to be done as well. It's not critical though. The driver's side is almost completely disintegrated and we risk it collapsing.
This will likely be our most expensive "body" repair...and the most difficult. Like Frodo though...we're afraid to begin.
