Repairing Dents in rear fenders. Better than bondo filling

[C.Costine]

I think my big question now is... are there any areas on these cars that rust from the inside out? When I have it down to bare metal I will be able to see all the areas I need to cut and weld some patch that had rusted from the outside in, but being a roadster with an open top I just want to know if there are other areas I should be aware of.

I have a few rust through spots on the rockers, rear fender sides, and rear rear trunk floor well by fender.

I am thinking I will use 18g galvanized sheets for my patches...I know to take the proper precautions when welding galvanized.

In addition to the front rocker caps check the rears as well. Also the front fenders underneath the vertical reinforcing pieces. The trunk fender wells can get bad on the front and inside as well as outside and bottom.

Thank for all the help guys! Now I just need to make some support braces for taking the body off next. I want to go rotisserie, but I think a body dolly might be cheaper.
