Re: Rat repair.

Well the front half of the door is looking pretty good, cant say the same for the back half. I didn't notice it when i stopped yesterday but the back corner of the skin had dipped in quite a bit, kinda football shapped about 4" X 6", the worst area is about 1/4" deep. I don't know if using my stud gun dent puller will be effective at popping it out. The arch that i tried to maintain across the width is now in a straight line. I have a small amount of welding left.

Ya know this keeps making me think that maybe flanging a replacement skin and bonding it in may possibly give a better result?
