Has anyone dealt with this situation without replacing the entire fender?
The double paneled section rusted from the inside out, but the rust is isolated to the cowl area. The rest of the fender is rust and dent free in and out. ![]() ![]() |

you will have to cut out the top and fabricate a patch panel and weld it in restoring the cowl seal area. Our men do it all the time if you want to call for a step by step

Our men do it all the time if you want to call for a step by step George, Is the vertical portion of the fender (the outside edge of the cowl seal channel) welded to the edge of the cowl where they meet, or is my remaining metal being held in place by a panel adhesive or seam sealer? The vertical section looks well rusted as well and probably isn't weldable. I was afraid to cut away any more until I understand the anatomy of this area. |
