I own a blk 93 s/c - i love the car but have had to let sit because -welp first i now have two daughters ( 3- and 8 months ) and needed something a little larger- and also because the rear shocks decided they needed to peek up through my fooking trucnk.

Its getting warmer out and thought maybe ill keep her but i need to repair this problem. It seems that the metal gave way and the strut mount(upper) came up almost all the way through tthe trunk.

I am going to assume there has qbeen this problem before and was hoping there was a solution other that welding in more steel-

i guess what i was wondering if there was an easy fix for this issue

thanks in advance

No, there is going to be no easy fix. Your going to have to cut out the bad till you find good metal and weld a new piece in.

I got my eye on a realll nice 94-96 v8 bird that i think has this problem, cars been sitting on the front wheels for some time now. I dont think there going to fix the car.

If I could grab it for 600 do you guys think it would be worth it. Of course I know it would be a good parts car but Im talking about to fix and use as a winter tbird so I could not drive my two SC's;)
 
For that to happen id think you have major spring ssues. Youll probably hav eto cut areas out of a donar car and hav ethem welded unles syou can brace and reweld whats there. Rear strut brace will only help side deflection
