Greg, I am going to use a grinder also. I just don,t want to damage the metal. I had a body man come look at the car and he thought it was in really nice shape but quoted me 5000 to do the rear quarters. I know good body work is expensive but I think I can do it; My hope is to strip it and find someone willing to work with me and point me in the right direction. The cars doors ,floors ,trunk and fenders are in great condition. So my next move is to strip and send some pictures for you guys to see on what I really have. I have a 60 gallon compressor and a nice miller welder but little to no knowledge with body work.
