[T3] Front fender rust question
The situation:
1970 Square; looking in trunk, down past the spare and the washer fluid
reservoir, at area where front bumper bolts to inner front fender (driver's
side), I can see a small amount of rot poking thru-- neatly outlining the
bumper attachment bracket. Passenger side look entirely fine.
The question:
To treat this right, (assuming the rest of fender is solid) is it better to
remove this fender, cut out bad section, treat any remaining rust, and weld
in a patch? Or better to try to find replacement fender?
The car is so solid that this rotted bumper bracket area is a real anomoly.
Maybe bumped there and underseal was broken enough to capture moisture.
