I started laying out the fender removal process by establishing a reference line that all measurements will be taken from. This is the top tape in the left photo. I then measured down and established the cut line, the bottom tape, allowing plenty of room for adjustment. With cut-off tool in hand, I cut along the line and roughly cut around the rest of the fender lip. I had previously drilled out the spot welds on the inside edge of the door opening, around the headlight ring and the few down the front under the ring. I also had to melt out the body lead and cut the brazed seam under the headlight. The rough edges need to be trimmed off and cleaned up then the new fender can be cut and fitted. I can only work for about 1/2 hour at a time so it might take a while.
