I've got the burnt 914 that needs the left rear fender removed and replaced. I have a parts car that has a good fender. I also want to replace the sail panel. How should I remove the fender? However you recommend, I'll use the exact same method for removing the parts car item. Once I remove the fender, I'll need to replace the door striker and some inner engine compartment sheet metal. Please be very specific and provide pics if possible. Thanks again for all of your help.

Well, the intent this long 3 day weekend was to remove the left rear fender. Unfortunately I wasn't able to find the Black and Decker Bullet drill bit. I've checked NAPA, Sears, Tool Wholesale (local company) and the locak auto paint store. Any recommendations to where I can check next? I don't want to purchase the 'hole-saw' type, evidently they break easily. Once I get the bullet bit, I'll show the removal of the fender.

BTW, it wasn't a lost Porsche weekend. I worked on the V8 conversion project. I removed the dealer installed A/C system. This included removing the condesor, in the front trunk, the dryer, in the right fender well, the under dash fan control unit, in the passenger compartment, and all of the A/C hoses, that run from the front to the engine compartment. Here's a shot of the hoses hidden beheath the right side valance.
