Re: Quarter panel destroyed
If it got into the jam that bad....it's going to be put on the rack to be pulled....or it will never be right.

Re: Quarter panel destroyed
try drilling out the spot welds and using a cut off wheel to cut the top. cut it big so you can trim later. take your time and do it right while its on the car its a lot easier to do it on the car than trimming it off the car.
