    Today I have mainly been drilling holes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Due to the Frankenstein neck damage on the R/NS corner and some damage to the sill I decided to replace the long side in total as we had the panel and I have more time on me hands than sense!! It would do away with any filler as well.

    Now just the strip under the waist Big problem is its hard to judge drilling through the first skin as due to the acid process theres no tell tale puff of rust.
