[s-cars] Rusty Hatches (Avant content)

[Matt twentyV]

Peter, do you know if an A6 hatch would work?

You might try contacting Dad's Auto out here in CA:  http://www.dadsauto.com/

I've gotten a few parts from them in the past.  We don't have this particular rust issue on our avant (neener neener).
