now for the dogleg side I used some of the good metal I cut off of the driverside rear to swap to the front so I can get a good curvature and the correct shape without beatin the heck out of some flat stock

hmm came out better than I expected. I just have to skin coat it with filler. It came out flush with a couple of pit's in the tacking, almost perfect curvature (whacked it with a hammer a little harder that it needed. but I'll pull it out with the stud gun)

next was 2 weird holes in the middle of nowhere, I looked at them and they were pinholes , but by the time I got to good metal they were at least a inch square. one is done already and here's the second one

that bare strip on the quarter panel is a crease (got em on BOTH sides. some one couldn't drive evidently) I'll pull them out hopefully with the stud gun. but not today.

all done for today.
IT's BEER:30 time!
