not sure there is a panel. if i read your post right, you want to remove the seam.

why not just weld it up?

I'd like to hear how people get rid of this seam also.

Do a search for shaving drip rails. I don't think they make a panel. I'm sure all you can do is fill it in if your shaving drip rails. If not you can reseal the seams/drip rail. There was a thread a few days ago about restoring drip rails.

I had my drip rails shaved and the rear seam welded smooth. It has to be welded, if you try to fill with body filler it will crack.

Porterbuilt did it too. He replaced the seam area with rolled/formed pieces.
