As promised, more metal gore. Left side is off. Good example of the pop rivet panel replacement era...
There are still remnants at the tail panel to clean off before I can test fit the NOS panel, but it's close now. I cut away the large section to improve access to welds in the trunk and roof gutter. Then grind them off with a combination of a stone wheel and cut off disc to save the structure underneath from holes from drilling. This quarter to extension flange is the last piece I needed the stone for and it quit right at the last weld. I like to get my monies worth out of consumables...
