I have an old wire feed welder but even on the lower setting and moving fast it still burns through sheet metal.

Im trying to find someone around me with a TIG welder.

On my lower rear passenger side 1/4 panel,it had a crease in from the wheelwell to the lower corner of the car near the bumper.I got a "new" panel,cut off the unnecessary metal,made a "skin" out of it,and used body panel adhesive to attach it to the car over the damaged area..It's solid,and is never coming off.The body lines are just right,and it didn't stick out past the bumper cover.No-one that has seen the car up close can tell I did that work,even after I tell them.GOOD stuff.

I have seen the 1/4's on and felt them, and I was impressed with no distortions, I do believe he will make it look fine.

Yea, the quarters came out almost perfectly straight
here's a shot with the light on it.

and when the filling is done this will fill the imperfections when blocked flat. this stuff can add an 1/8" of fill in a couple coats if needed.

Here's a better view. the distortion is minimal along the weld, as you can see here.

ah i see.. i was worried when i saw the picture where the 1/4 is down to metal completely. you can see the weld line, but instead of distortion like i thought i saw, it looks good enough that you wont use much filler. you defiantly have my respect!!

I did some blasting today, after I removed the wiring

Here's the drivers side

I guess I also need to fix this

It's not as bad as I figured. I'll be welding new metal for extra support, and smoothing everything out.

Today's big question......... Where do I disconnect the lower line for the air conditioning that goes through the firewall?
