Well I put this off long enough so I figured I better get it done.
I needed to weld the inside of the left quarter panel to the top of the rocker, ya know inside where ya can't get at
So I cut a hole in the inside panel big enough to get in there, then put together a gizmoe to hold the quarter straight with the rocker and welded up the inside.
Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be LOL
Tomorrow POR-15 the inside and weld the piece back on.

Yes this can be a PITA . LOL
I have alot of time put in linning up the quarters.

I had one hook on the quarter to outter wheelhouse lip and the other hook in the hole for 4spd. You can use anywhere in the car that will hold the hook on strap.
You can also put the 2x4 sideways if needed.
I just cranked the ratchet strap untill the quarter was lined up with rocker, then welded the inside.
Hope this helps
