FL Wing collision repair

 The car had been shunted in the front and rear at some point in its history. My guess is that the driver rear-ended the car in front first, then it was in turn rear ended from the car following.

Here's some of what I've been dealing with today, Nose of the LH wing underneath the bondo.


After some dolly work. The metal was getting paper thin and cracking in some areas from the liberal use of a body grinder by the previous repairman.



After welding up the holes and the cracks. Had to lay in some metal at the corner edges to build up the thickness. Kept blowing holes through the paper thin metal that was left, so lots of booger welds. I'm undecided whether I'll cut some of this out and replace it or just mud over it.
