Well here is todays progress, I welded in the gas tank rear support panel, & started welding in the l/s trunk floor. I also welded the trunk latch support panel to the tail light panel. After doing a few plug welds on the trunk floor & the gas tank support panel I reinstalled the tail light panel & clamped it in place & it fits good. I took some pics & will get them posted soon.

Yesterday & today I spent a couple hours again in the garage & finished welding in the l/s trunk floor & ground down the welds. I also started welding in the tail light panel. Looks like a car again. I will get a pic posted over the weekend.

Update; today I spent a few hours in the garage & finished welding in the bottom of the tail light panel & welded a couple spots on the top to hold it in place while I proceeded to start to cut out the l/s quarter panel. I took some pics & will get them posted soon. Also fixed a small spot in the lower r/s of the trunk lid.

Todays progress, got out the cut off wheel & cut off most of the drivers side quarter panel face. Left a 2" strip across the top of the quarter panel that I will weld the new quarter panel skin to. I just need to remove the section of the old quarter panel that wraps into the door jamb area & the section that is welded to the top of the rocker panel. Pics to come soon.
