Well, I thought the sheet metal was okay (HA!). I'm teaching myself to weld on some old body panels that I've removed--this is the tail panel. I cut it into sections once I removed it so I could practice my welding, and in the process I found more bondo than I thought existed!

after a smack or two with a hammer, I got a chunk to fall off. Its near 1 cm of bondo! (in weird multiple layers)

:hmm: I don't think you can weld bondo.
That sucks big time. Hopefully things won't get much worse.
