Repairing gas door area on quarter panel- panel options?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

I have a 1976 280z.  One of the previous owners decided to get rid of the fuel filler door and weld in a patch in its place.  They did a horrible job and ruined the body line in that area.  I don't need to have a fuel door but would really like to fix the area before I paint the car this summer.  I would normally just use a stud welder+slide hammer and get it close then smooth with filler.  However, the body line that runs right through this area is totally ruined and I don't think I can bring it back to an acceptable level.

 

I know most vendors only sell quarter panel patches that don't have this body line.  I did find one vendor that does sell a panel that includes the body line, Wolf Steel: https://alfaparts.net/pics/nissan/nz5.htm

 

1) Does anyone have experience with Wolf Steel panels?

2) Are there any other vendors that sell a panel that includes the body line?

3) Any other thoughts?

 

Thanks
