Quick update, time to move on.... I've attached two pics. The first is of the passenger side outer cowl. I took Kevin's advice and hit it with another coat of filler primer and did some sanding. The edges got better, but are still not perfect. They work for me, though. After priming and sanding, again, I used Krylon Matt Glacier Gray paint on all of the outer surfaces that were repaired. Eventually, I'll paint the interior parts that were repaired, but not until after finishing the driver's side work. Speaking of which, I spent my first time on the driver's side, doing some sanding to find the spot weld dimples on the rocker panel. My game plan for the driver's side is the same one that I used on the passenger side. I'll start with the rocker panel. Once that is mocked up, I'll cut out the floor rot and fit the replacement floor pan in place. I plan to hold those parts in place with sheet metal screws. Once I'm happy with the fit, I'll start welding them in place. From there, I'll move onto the inner cowl. Once that is in place, I'll make whatever repairs are necessary to the hinge pockets. From there, it'll be time for the inner-to-outer cowl and outer cowl fitment/welding process. During this process, I'll have to deal with the pedals, too. Sounds so easy when I write it down! It does feel like progress, though. Being essentially done with the passenger side and starting on the driver's side feels good. Thanks for reading about my adventures, so far. I'll keep writing about them and posting pics. We'll see what cringeworthy moments I can come up with...! As always, positive comments and suggestions are always welcome.
