Hello Esahlin - Thanks for the "come along" tip;
We plan on using the panel adhesive in a few locations. I did get the adhesive, the gun, and there is a special going on until June 30th for a "Lord Fusor Spray Gun" which sprays wheel well spray/sound deadening material and seam sealer - you get the $224.00 gun for $59.00 when you purchase 6 tubes of the material - each cylinder is about $16.00. I thought it was a good deal and wanted to pass it along, I went to my local paint supply store to get it. They couldnt believe it until they called their Lord Fusor Rep.
I am undecided on changing the tail-panel for now, I did inspect the passenger quarter panel more closely and it is very much usable, it would need 2 small patches one in front of the wheel opening and one behind, the rest is rust free and solid. As far as the seems in the inner wheel wells in the trunk area; they too are in great shape - Im glad for that.
Are there any crucial measurments to take into consideration before we start the welding? I just don't want to forget anything. We have compared the front window pillar to the end of the quarter and its spot on. We also measure from the inner leaf spring to the lower rear part of the panel and it matches the untouched passenger side. The window chrome was placed on and here are some pictures.
