Hank -

It is great seeing another V8 rescued and coming back to life; I can't wait to see the finish product, and I commend you on the effort that you have, and will continue to, put into this car.

Building upon what Keith said about panel-beating, you could be throwing the baby out with the bathwater by installing a full repair such as those pictured above. It might be that you only need a small patch formed. Also, I bet those panels don't come with any underbody reinforcements, which are more prone to rust.

Wait to make your decision until you can see exactly what is necessary.
