Hello,

I'm a new owner of a used 88 Westfalia Vanagon.   After looking the
vehicle over, there is some rust near the city-water input.   It appears
to have rusted all the way through near the bottom and into the corner
of this area on the body panel.   The two bottom screws for the
city-water cover plate are screwed through the rust. (they still hold it
on though)

Can anyone suggest a repair method for this?   I would like be able to
save the panel.   Of course if I have to buy a new panel for it, then I
guess I will.

Thanks,
Chris
