Hello Everyone,
This is the left front fender, which is currently beyond my ability to fix, but a friend of mine told me of a metal fab class by a restoration expert that allows you to bring your own project. So if things work out, I will post the progress of the repairs.

Except for the fender to running board area, the rest was hidden by bondo.

The local "Technical College" used to run a night course on vehicle restoration with a tradesman panel beater instructing and there was always a rush at enrollment time to get a space. The problem was there wasnt enough trade trainees to warrant maintaining the equipment so the complete panel beating and restoration classes were shut down.

Hello tonyw,

A friend of mine found a local guy offering classes and you can bring in a project to work on using his instructions on the best way to accomplish the repairs.
