Hey everybody,
I am currently taking an auto body class at my local CC. From now until mid may in this class we have about 6 hours per week of personal project time. I am hoping to repair some rust damage in the body panels of my dad's 914. I have not found any structural rust yet, just cosmetic rust. Anyways, I am wondering where I should go to get patch panels for this. Is there a wrecking yard on the central coast of CA that would have this stuff, or should I mail order it from somewhere? All input is much appreciated. Andrew |

What gauge steel should I be using for making patches? I have decided to start with the rust holes in the front trunk weatherstripping channel because this is the least conspicuous spot I need to work on. I figure this will give me a chance to get my skills honed in a bit before I move on to visibe repairs. My instructor told me to just cut pieces out of scrap body panels we have laying around to make the patches. What should I do to seal up my repairs after I make them, to insure that they don't start to rust again?
