I can do most of it w/ no problem. the one spot that worries me is the rear pass quarter panel. this includes the wheel well gas tank lid and wraps around to the back. I will post pics of the spot this weekend. Would it be a better idea to try and located a new quarter and install or is this an impossible task? i have yet to look deeply into what hold this together but i i will this weekend. So what i need to know is
Does the quarter panel come off?
Would it be a pretty simple job or require cutting and welding?
Should I try to cut away damaged areas and try to reshape it?
Any input is appreciated

can i make a bit of advice???
now that you are doing some body work on your car, why don't you widen the rear fenders a little bit to the outside so that they can englobe the 8.5 wheels instead of 7.5. I did it on my SVX while bodywork was in process. they do not look very much deviated from stock, the difference is negligeable, but you can install 8.5 wheels and getting superb stability and grips on roads.
