Beginner Body work

I've got the same project going with my Dart Sport. I have no experience either but I figure I can learn anything...so I jumped right in (I also have no fear about messing up - after all, I bought the car, it is mine and if I do make a mess of something I'll pay to have it corrected). A neighbor and I are stripping the car completely with Aircraft Stripper first, then will tackle the body work. There are a few spots that have complete rust through that we'll need some help with, but I'm optimistic that if we can get the local body shop guy to show us how to fix one of the spots, we can handle the others.

I saw an earlier post that had an article by Larry Lyle and wanted to add that he has a wealth of information available about body and repair, from books to cd's. I've watched a few of his cd's and read quite a bit of his articles and find him to be extremely helpful.
