I've been doing a few bits on the evenings but I wanted to get some opinions of the other front wing.

It's an original ford item with some pitting that's generally good for 50year old tin.

I'm not sure if I can clean these pits out carefully them lead load as I'm afraid that welding will blow them out and the complexity of the repair sections won't work either.

I can't remove the wing without damaging it beyond repair as it's welded on. I'm wanting to avoid replacement at £350 It's beyond what I can spend currently given I need to consider body work for the whole car.

Some opinions would be much appreciated

I've been plugging away at the wing and I'd say I'm about halfway. The lower section is fixed a d will need a skim to put a little more shape into it.

I've managed to get the rust out of the pits and started working on welding and leading. There's more to do but I was running low so I've recast the left overs

I'll get the rest finished but I was hot and wanted a break!
