More progress addressing rear quarter rust areas Cees Klumper
Removed inner trim, fender, to expose the rusted areas; cut out rust to healthy metal, make paper templates, then cut out from fresh sheet metal (0.9 mm mild steel), weld in place - full welding in sections that will be visible, less-than-full where it will be invisible. Weld-through primer or normal primer as appropriate to protect the metal. Will spray in additional protectant ('tectyl') later. View other images: From Cees Klumper Search Forums for photo
