Spare tire well

Posted by 55clipper On 2014/8/4 16:13:01

the wheel well for my spare tire is about as rusty as rusty can be. It looks like a relatively easy thing to remove. Cut out the welds and drop the new one in. But, what about using a torch so close to the gas tank. Would a good welder be able to do this without removing the tank?
Also any ideas as to where I could get a good replacement well? Its for a 55 Clipper.
