Now that I have the body mounts repaired I am fixing the rusted areas in the wheel wells. The front drivers side is the worst, but all need some attention.


Sandblasted & primed


New piece fabricated from 14 gauge steel & fastened in place with panel bond & 3/16 steel pop rivets.



This will eliminate the seam between the square tube & the wheel well material. I will do this to the front & back of all 4 wheel wells.
