Anybody keep track of body work / panel replacement hours?

Yeah thats why part of me thinks I would be better off to use only the bottom half of the panel...perhaps just below the top line.

This is originally where the panel was going to be replaced but I was worried about seeing a ghost line eventually. The material on the car was going to have a lip put on it then the quarter laid against it and welded. I dont think a ghost line would be an issue if it were butt welded instead of lap joined.

Were you thinking of using a lower body line? This photo, the cut is about 1/2" below body line #1
