Hmmmmm, I got that problem too. The rust under the trunk lid lip. Not devistating, but not too good either. I was thinking about getting a 'glass lid, but they are pin ons aren't they? I would have to get a bolt on lid. One thing would be for sure though, like Mustanguy said, I wouldn't have to worry about rust on the lid ever again. Another thing though is that I don't like the style of the 'glass lids. At the end of the lid (the end closest to the key hole) the lid rises up then folds over, whereas the '79 lid is flat then just folds over. I don't like that bump at the end. Yes, I'm picky about my car too.
