"word to the wise after you do your metal work or buy a new one Go out and buy some rubber under coating and Spray the crap out of the area that you just fixed so it wont happen again"

I have found that switching to an internally regulated alternator will help keep the battery from overcharging, which is what boils the acid out of he battery, which eats the paint off the inner fender and core support and then eats at the metal.

The main deal killer on inner fenders is SHIPPING due to size. I try to find them at a meet to keep from having to pay shipping.
