Default Au Boot Strut Mount Rusted

Hi Guys

My AU S1 Fairmont Ghia has rusted the boot strut mount!!!!

The stud bolt which holds the boot strut & mounts to the body on the lower end has rusted through. The mounting point & the bolt have rusted so the strut hangs freely....

The boot is bloody heavy now being held by the left strut only & slams down real hard when trying to close it carefully. Have taken right strut off to minimise damage from the loose strut.

Has anyone out there experienced this on their AU????
Any ideas on how to repair or have had their AU repaired successfully?????

Cheers :
