I welded some stuff up last night after work. I need to grind the welds down and fill in what's left but it's looking good.

Had a day off with decent weather so I got some stuff done on the car. Finished welding up the wheel arch and grinding the welds down. It's not quite as flat as I'd like it to be, so it'll need some hammer and dolly work and some filler, but it looks good in the picture.
Got the lower quarter patch fit up. I'm going to screw and glue this piece.
I also blasted and epoxy primed the passenger side window channel. I used this 2K rattle can stuff that I've never used before. Pot life is 48 hours. I figured it would be nice for spots like this so I don't have to get the gun out and clean it and waste product for a small area.

Not to get too far ahead of the plot, what's the next area to get attention?
Thank you sir. I'm happy enough with it.
Good question. I need to glue and weld the rear filler panel, which is 90% ready to go. After that, I'll probably move to the driver's side quarter which is in better shape. *Hopefully* I can get away with just some fiberglass filler. The floor needs a couple patches, but I'm less concerned about them as they are readily available and easy to weld or glue in. It'd be great to get the jambs and firewall stripped and in epoxy primer.
TKX unless I get a really good deal on a nice Muncie.
Got the rear quarter patch glued on today. Painted the inner quarter with POR-15 first.
Went heavier on the screws than I'd have liked to get it tight, but I'll get them filled.
