Alright, well, it was recomended that i get a whole new rear fender b/c of the large hole in the inner wheel well. But that confused me b/c the rear fender is part of the whole rear body, and was told that I would need to make a cut. I think that is completly unneccesary, and that I should just clean up the rust around the hole and weld some sheet metal over the hole, as with the other holes (3 holes in the car total).

There are small holes that onlky need a quick putty job, but what I am asking is what should I do about the rear fender? I would like the car to last, and was told that if I weld the hole, the rust will be back in 2-3 years.

I also found a front clip, and 2 front 1/4 panels for 300 dollars, plus a 20 dollar finders fee, I'm thinkin it's a great deal...

Also, I need new ground effects for the Trans-Am, since they were severly rusted and I had to remove them. Does anybody know where I can get these? Thanks guys

 

well if i understand this correctly and your hole is only on the inner wheelwell then its a prettys simple fix. you'll wnat to go ahead and make sure this is your only problem area and that there isn;t more rust in that area than you already know about. If I remember right the sheetmetal on the inner wheelwell is a litttle thicker and if you can't curve it to fit yourself then your local metal or fab shop likely can. Basically cut out the hole and get a piece to fill it in that fits as best you can and in my opinion have it all butt-welded (never was a fan of the patch and spot-weld deals) smooth the welds and seal it with a good epoxy sealer. then if you want POR-15 it or give it a quick coat of paint with a rattlecan as nobody will see it under your interior anyway
