I've just started tearing the fenders off and seeing what parts I need to replace are. the guy i bought it off from re did the motor and kingpins and front brakes and lines all but the rear cross over and rear brakes so its a start. I'm just doing research into finding patch panels and such. but i'm not finding any for the fender where it bolts to the inner cowl ( which is gone from rust) does any one know if theres a kit or do i need to go old school with sheet metal. Also I am wondering if anyone has any tips on cleaning and repairing the creases around the cab below the rear windows. i'm going to attach some pictures of the cab and fenders Right Inner Cowl Fender cowl rust cab rust below window Full Album

As stated, the there are panels for the cowl. The problem below the back window is a fairly tough one. I don't have answers for that. | | |
