this is the inner part of the body... the wheel well.
i fixed the quarter panels by using some patch panels.....
on he drivers side i got left with this issue.
how do i fix that??

the metal for the wheel well is very thin. i don't think i can mig weld it. and its not a perfect arch so i can just use some **** metal and weld it

 

cut and weld, or get a new car

 

That's the inner wheel house. As mentioned you need to fab a patch or find a donor patch weld it in, epoxy/ paint the inside, then spot weld the seam to the QP, then epoxy/ body work, then undercoat/ paint. The bad part is that the wheel house should be repaired before the QP is patched, then spot welded.

 

how do you mean spot weld the seam to the quarter panel????don't you weld first then apply the seam?

i already have cut the quarter panel but not too much since the rust is in the side where the you fill the car with gas which doesnt' allow you to cut too much of the quarter panel.

the wheel house metal is very thin for some reason. on one side i was blowing holes with a little lincon 100 mig welder

is there any automotive super glue for patch panels or whatever that i can use in this matter
