Well, despite what everyone said I cut out the badly damaged panel and welded in a new piece. I had the piece laying around and it seemed the right thing to use it for. Here are the results. Not too bad for my first time. Here is the spot cut out.

Thanks for the offer, I got it handled. All the holes welded up and hammered and dollied it till it was pretty nice. Now I am applying the filler for the parts that were not so smooth. Should be done or really close tonightt. I will take pictures of the finished panel. Gimme just another hour or so. The sun is going down now so Iw ill have to close the garage door soon so as not to upset the neighbors with the grinding and sanding.
