Previous owner had welded the seam over the rear quarter windows. I was a bit worried about this so just had to sandblast it to ensure it's not starting to corrode straight away.

Had to cut out and weld in a little metal under the left rear light, was actually corroded through the metal at this place. Primed with zink primer here, but that didin't seem to have good adhesion at all, so I sanded it down and put on 2k epoxy afterwards.
