Im ready cut my quater panels off just as you did, but how do I know the right place to start? Most stuff this stuff I can gaze at for a moment and figure out, but these quater panels I have no clue and dont wanna go guessing. I do need to get them off just as you did to get those wheel wells out. Got most of the trunk section out today and cleaning up the rear left frame rail to decide how much of it is salvagable.

I've started to wire wheel along where the quater panel and roof meet to see how they are attached, and it looks like some kind of aluminum in the seems. Is that some kind of "bondo" from the factory?

Thanks, Trev
