The floors are really solid in this car, which is nice!
We found some rust in the lower quarter panel on the driver side, so it was removed and a steel panel repair was made.
The rough shape was formed with the old panel still in place on the car.
Then the rusty area was removed, and the inside structure was repaired.
The new panel was slowly tack welded in place with an HTP MIG 200 to keep the warpage to a minimum.
