Anyone know of a repair panel or something that would work to fix the lower bedside area where the toolbox door opening is?

I ended up buying a couple patch panels from Classic (one to practice on): https://www.classicindustries.com/pr...ts/t70226.html

Joshua, I used a rocker panel for one of mine, you have to do some cutting, but the metal thickness and curve pairs up well.

Saving the tool box or filling the space?

Thanks for the replies so far. Mr48 - I plan on using the toolbox. I've got a good door, but it's crusty down where the hinges bolt in on the bedside.
