I'm finally down to my last panel. Hidden beneath a mountain of bondo revealed a surprise. Hackers were here. Amateurs @ best.Everything is wrong with this picture. They simply overlapped and welded straight across. The heat warping alone is overwhelming. The panel ends up concaved at least a 1/4" & loses it's perimeter(It's Shape in the wheel well). It's this simple;cut a straight line across,hold up your patch panel mark it,cut it,you may have to straighten it a bit with a hammer n dolly. Tach weld it in place. move around with your final weld transfering the heat. Feel free to pause w/the welding. You can use a damp rag to cool it etc. A small 110 unit works fine.
Geeze!!! I saw this one before I removed the bondo, the wheel well didn't tuck inward like the otherside.
