Impala trunk seal replacement.

This is a 1965 Impala, and what started as a simple trunk seal replacement turned into a much bigger job. In this video, I remove the seal, repair some rust damage, and install a new seal. That's the thing with old cars, you never really know what you'll find. This seal is the same for 59-75 full size GM cars.
