While cutting the damaged rear wall out of my '73 on the rear drivers side I found that the tail light area was filled extensively with body filler and was rusting the metal underneath. Does anyone have any advice on how far forward on the fender I should cut to replace this area. The damage extends to at least the forward edge of the curve of the tail light section.
I have a donor car that I can cut the fender off of as far forward as the area in front of the wheel well, anything forward of that the donor has rust issues.
Please let me know your thoughts
