Presume you mean the complete rear panels, not just the arches?

They're becoming something of a rarity these days, I'm after a pair of clean panels myself :roll:

yep, i know, don't need the whole panel, i would settle for the arch and some welding.....

or the whole lot

just need to get it done soon, starting to look bad.. that rust is so charming..

Some complex repair sections can be made with a little care and if welded in again with care can be nearly perfect, needing only minimal prep ready for paint.

Something like this to do.

Not until you try, practice makes perfect. It's a simple format that if followed stage by stage applies to all repairs, practise on a piece of scrap, butt welding together in the stages shown. Ask questions and I'll happily try to guide. Or just pay someone to do the work.
