Had to create an inner panel from stock steel as both exterior and interior layers were rusted out. Not beautiful welds, but much improved with the new welding wire.

Welding on the exterior body panel is the easy part. Fabricating the inner panels is a challenge. The one on the left is four parts welded together to get the correct shape to match the fender panel

Cleaned out and painted rocker panel. Painted with POR-15 Epoxy, then body cavity rust preventer. Should last another 50 years or so.

Front end stripped of paint. Shows off the incredible metal work done by a guy here in San Antonio. The front end was caved in and he beat/stretched it out and it is very smooth.
