Its been too long since I worked on this. Life has been busy. However, I got time tonight to work on it. So, I welded in the most visible pieces of the repair. They turned out pretty good and I don't think I'll do a ton more to them. They might not even get bondo... (remember, this isn't body shop quality work, its get it functional work). I'm planning on hitting the rocker area with truck bed liner anyways to hide stuff and to minimize the color matched paint ($$$) use.
This is the forward piece.
I ground it down with the angle grinder after welding it.
Then hit it with the rusty metal primer.
Next up was the rear piece. I had a bit more practice at this point and it welded in much nicer. I was also able to get a piece of copper bar behind it while I was welding which worked great.
I ground it down and hit it with the primer. Its far from perfect, but unless you're looking for it, it looks pretty good.
