I drilled all the spot welds out at the tail panel, trunk drop and outer wheel house.
I cut off the wheel house from the drop down. The bottom weld flange of the quarter panel was buried in sealer, so I scrapped that out and discovered the diagonal brace in that area was spot welded on top of the quarter. I removed the brace for access to the flange welds and drilled them out. Then I cut out the forward section of the wheel house lip that was rusted and dented. Did a bunch of cleaning and de-burring and set the new skin on for a test fit. It, actually, looks like it's going to be very close. Marked the area of the outer house to cut out the sections I need. And that is where I am at today. Next work session is getting the sections cut out and start cutting the skin to fit.
