I have got some serious rust on my 88 suburban, most of which I can ignore, but there are two places where the metal needs to be repaired. The first, and worst, is the driver side rear wheel well. It is rusted off on 3 sides, I leaned on it yesterday and the metal fell through the floor.



The floor pan around the well feels pretty solid. I think this is the panel I need. http://www.goodmarkindustries.com/product.cfm?id= 4144-680-73.

There are also panels available for the outside of the vehicle, but I am not sure if that is worth dealing with. This is the outside of that wheel well as of current .

The other area that I feel is less urgent is the rocker area of the driver door. . I am clueless as to what metal I need to fix that.

I have no illusions of making this a show truck, I just want to keep it on the road because everything mechanical is doing very good. Please speak up if you know about the sheet metal pieces or their replacement.
