I've got a cancer problem on my front fenders on the lower trailing edge. Where the overlapping sheetmetal facing the tire wheel, the top layer is eating away. Any ideas how to repair short of cutting out and replacing. I haven't posted in a while, I'll try to get some pictures posted.


It's not the weight of the load, that breaks your back. It's how you carry it.

I just made this repair on my 49 fender. This was the easiest area to weld without much fear of warping compared to what I had to do on the rest of the fender. (I should have looked harder for a better fender). If you want to cut your teeth on welding, the area you describe would be a good place to start.
