its easy to get overwhelmed seeing magazines thru the years that started showing only high end restorations by pros that makes one think you have to full panel replace everything. the era i came up in, i watched many a person cut out only whats needed and do a good job splicing and welding.

good luck would like to see you post a thread with pics of your progress

that makes sense .one question i have how does the welding look like on the inside of the trunk. i don't like when i see the weld when i open the trunk
