    If the holes are about an half inch or smaller you can use a piece of fiber glass and por15. It works really well. its not cheap. About a 120 a gallon. When its done you can hardly see the glass when done.

    Not To Worry

    ..He's just yanking your chain as most Ca. trucks have old rags and built up dust , mud and spilled beer , soda brake fluid etc. down in the lower cab corners that holds the moisture and then they rust out similar to Wisconsin trucks.... :rolleyes:
