Rear quarter panel removal, how to?
Search turned up very little, only to cut the spot welds. Does anyone have pics or a description as to where all the welds are? Is there any information out there that would enable someone to DIY? Or is this not a DIY type of project for someone with no body repair experience? I do have a welding pro at my disposal for reinstall of a donor panel (speaking of which -- does anyone in WNY have a right rear quarter on a parts car they don't need?)
TIA

This is close, although he cut the c pillar instead of going all the way to the roof.
If you have a damaged panel you might want to just cut out the damaged piece and replace it.

ouch.
The term "that'll buff right out" won't apply here. I assume this is a track car, so Bondo is out. If the quarter is good from the flare on up, I'd be tempted to cut out the damage and weld in a "repair" panel from a parts car.
Burma, what do you think?
