I have a build thread but I figured I'd reach a wider audience here asking this question.
Wire wheeling and media blasting some problem areas on the rear of the car I found some of this stuff:
some tiny pinholes: I can weld these up
the worst side is the passenger side: this is right to the right of the tail lights.
Don't know why this image got flipped but this is right above the last picture on the passenger side of the car,
Holes in the back lower quarter.
Other than those problem areas I can honestly say that the quarters are in excellent shape inside and out (minus the seams on the B-pillar). I really want to replace the least amount of sheet metal as possible. Would this be a doable job from a body shop?
Reason I ask is I cut the trunk floor pan out and I wanted to por-15 the entire inside of the rear quarters and tail panel before I put the trunk pan back in, But if this panel needs to be replaced then I'm going to be delayed in putting the trunk pan in because it gets welded to the tail panel.....
Really hoping to por-15 everything right now, put the trunk pan in, take it to a body shop when I get it painted, and have them deal with all the small rust spots without replacing sheet metal.
Here's a link to my build thread: https://www.forbbodiesonly.com/mopa...harger-diy-build.160034/page-4#post-911159946
