Luckily I have my dads shrinker-stretcher dies over at my shop, which made the job of creating the patch possible&#8230; it took me a good two hours, because I am a rooky, but I got it to work and it fits well. I re-made the part you see in the picture, plus the flange where it is spot welded to the lip. The compound curve of this piece made it a challenge to create. I opted not to weld the whole thing solid, rather I tacked it in good and then put some seam sealer over it. The picture shown below only has a few tacks, I added several more. Of course, I treated all the metal inside with Picklex-20 first before capping it over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.60impala.com\/arc\/InnerFenderLip.jpg\" alt=\"Inner Quarter Panel Fender Lip\" title=\"Inner Quarter Panel Fender Lip\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The passenger side wheel house lip had some small rust holes in it.. nothing bad, but they were perforated pretty much the whole length, so the proper way to repair this was obviously a new patch, rather than trying to weld up each hole, or doing something half-ass like filling the holes with seam sealer.&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.60impala.com\/blog\/inner-quarter-panel-rust-repair\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Wheel House Rust Repair<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all","category-rust-repair","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
