I cut this away a few weeks ago, but only now have gotten around to taking a picture. I tell you, this car is really teaching the true value of an original car. This rear part of the fender is where the inside wheel well connect to a small channel and then to the outside of the car. This small channel also allows for the rear fender to bolt to the body through the use of cages nuts (which is an exclusive ford design and one that they should hit over the head for doing…but I digress). So, as with the drivers side, this area has to be completely fabricated and made new. So, I have struggled to get the inside piece to weld fully, but I am finding and learning what battles to pick. Enough undercoating and POR 15 and that will never be an issue. The next step is to make an outer piece and weld it in, beign carfeul not to warp the side of the car as well as drill holes to mount the fender to. Shouldn’t be too long before this part gets done.
