  Sorry, these aren't great shots. On the RHS there is a hole that is pretty clear. I don't see a problem with this one welding a small patch. It's the holes further back on both sides that concern me. I can't see how you would get a weld down inside the join.Hopefull the pics will work. |

Very poor photos but I think I get what your doing. If the gaurd is the panel with the hole take a butane torch and warm the seam sealer on the inside of the gaurd you will find it is packed with seam sealer. Here's a photo of the area. I just re sealed this gaurd. You can then clean this up real good with a wire brush and cut the rust out make your patch and weld it from inside the wheel well. Hope this suggestion helps.
 I'm not sure you saw this thread from a couple days ago but maybe it will help. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=177500 |

Thanks Rick. I will take a look at the problem from the other side. That's really helpful. Never thought to attack it from that side.
