The easiest way in dealing with the edge fold is to use a grinder to take the edge down without hitting the inner shell, then you can section the fold with a cuttoff wheel between the spot welds, then grind off the spot welds.

Thanks, Mike Just read your thread looks like you have done a lot of the same work, as I need to do. Just hope I can do 1/2 the quality job you have done. Nice work vary informative.
Doors bottoms do not look to bad, will check out the insides for rust, and hopefully just replace the corners. Did not seem right to cut up complete patch panel, I was wondering how to keep from getting warpage welding the whole panel on.
