Jigsaw anyone?

Making these parts that are 90% missing is interesting to say the least, got some more cuttings/grinding discs for the air grinder today so finished removing the front section of the passengers rear fender and began work rebuilding the structual panel behind.

I wont have to replace the whole rear quarter on this side but will have to replace about 60% of it in two sections. Also the rear isnt as badly damaged/rusted.

2 weeks till my 11 day streak on the impala so i've got to get a riggle on with the rust repairs so I can do the bodywork of majority of it when i have the time off.

Anyway. here is the pictures from today.



This is the rust on the section that was removed from the front of the rear fender.


This is the rear area with the rusted support part removed


This is the rusted support part. aka jigsaw.
Piecing together the new piece.
