Just ordered a new front passenger fender. Decided to replace it rather than using my patched fender. Also got a used fuel filler door as my hinge was busted and stuck. I have a week of vacation coming up Halloween week and plan to dedicate alot of time to the runner that week. It's been almost two years since i began this project and plan to get it damn close by the end of that week.

i suppose, guess there are two sides too that. You would also end up too broke to enjoy it.

here is where I'm at. The drivers side rear (the one i jacked up pretty bad on my first attempt at repairing) had some serious low spots at the arches and i didn't like the amount of filler that was going to be needed to repair it. So i sanded it all off and did my best to beat it out. It is really tight in there and no room to hammer.

i bought some tiger hair filler and am using that to build it up.

Here is where i got it. Getting ready to spray epoxy and filler primer. After that cures I'll start blocking it out and use some glaze (2 part) to fill pin holes or imperfections. I will not remove this again so it either looks good or it doesn't. I'll start on the other side next weekend.
