Abstract
Permanent repair of a rusted pinchweld in the windshield securing channel of an automobile is effected by replacement of the rusted portion with a highly malleable repair panel of novel design. The repair panel has a generally Z-shaped cross section and dimensions compatible with the pinchweld of an automobile. The panel is secured to unrusted pinchweld by any suitable means and rendered leakproof by suitable body repair procedures. The reconstructed pinchweld offers a base for windshield replacement closely approximating the original construction. Further degeneration is checked by rendering the entire repaired structure leakproof with proper installation techniques.
