Member No.: 5,515 Region Association: None    |  I'm getting my project car in about two weeks and will need to weld on the rear fenders before I can begin any body work. Anyone have any good suggestions on welding on rear fenders. Any tips on what type of welder to use. I use to use a mig welder. Unfortunetly I do not have a welder and will have to rent one.   |

They are already removed. I guess my biggest question is how to weld up near the door jam. The shell had it's original fenders cut off all the way to where you would normally have the inner door seal.  |
