Hi guys,

I have a 1961 Standard bus which I am restoring. The Front Reinforcement/Stiffening Panel is rotted out where it meets the cabin bulkhead.

I realise that this is a regular panel that is affected by rust. I have searched this forum, but not really finding what I need.
If anyone has a video link or photo series of replacing/restoring this panel it would be greatly appreciated. I need to complete this repair before I move on to the bulkhead.
Thanks in Advance.

This might show better definition of the panel.

Would it be best to replace the whole panel or just the affected section. Under the seat box is good with no rust.
