    To be honest, I thought about fiberglass or Duraglas on mine. Fitting these small patches has been a pain in the ass. Maybe I should have just cut one large area out on each side but I read an article that said to save as much of the original structure as possible, so here we are. :D

    Made some progress on the trunk...
    Took some rust prevention measures.
    Got the left side tacked in and the right side pretty much welded.
    Found a soft spot in the left rear of the pan. Welded in a patch and cleaned it up.

    Finished the welding and cleaned it up a bit. I'll throw some mud on the seams and get the trunk ready for paint.
