914World.com _ 914World Garage _ buggered up the qt panel a while back

Posted by: bd1308 Nov 5 2006, 01:21 AM

kidna hard to explain, a combo of a floor jack and not good chocks and soft asphalt during summer caused the car to fall off the jack and onto the tire/rotor as i was putting tire on car.

I'm ok, but the car's fender is pushed up and out a tad.

peen hammers, or a section from a donor?

Just tagging along with this one - I've got a damaged LR 1/4 panel. I'm guessing a skilled body shop could pound it out, but wondering if replacement is a DIY option. Is replacement something a newbie can approach, or is it a "experts only" kind of job ?

If you can opperate a drill a saw a grinder and you can weld I don't see any
reason that you couldn't do it. Just take your time

well this guy has a stud welder, and a puller for it.

I think i'll just do what I need to do. This car is already three different cars welded together, I doubt i'm compromising value by fixing this

Give me a week, I'll pull it and let you know how I did it.

I welded my car back together again (massive hell hole rot) and I am not a expert.
