Was messing around in the garage a bit and took some pics. I swear if bondo was worth something... Make shift patch behind the driver's side inner wheel well looks like it was beat into place, clumped up with slag, then bondo'd over.

If bondo was gold, you could retire?

Heck, I could pay every member of this forum to retire ;)

To tell the truth, Brian, your car looks pretty solid to me in those pics. It looks like the inner quarters are in pretty good shape. I would say that repairing the tubs should be all you need to do. I had to patch the lower innner quarters on my Nomad, but it looks like yours are solid.

I'm not sure if that makes me feel any better ;)

I'll be tubbing it anyway, so I'll be cutting on them. The outer wheel wells are covered in some sort of undercoating -- it honestly looks like quick-crete. So, I need to get those cleaned off to see what I have. My gut tells me the driver's side needs repairing.

I've lost my Saturdays until after football season - kids have games from 10-9 every saturday - so, I get Sunday afternoons and what little I can get done in the week. Hard to have time working 60+ hours, though.
