Bill,

Thank you. I'm a little concerned about scraping the rust and repairing. The surface of the paint is not discolored from rust. The painted surface of the fender is significantly raised, like a bubble or blister. It has grown too since I first observed it. My fear is if I scrap it, I will be left with a hole into the panel. My thought is that to fix this properly, a portion of the existing panel will have to be cut away and a new piece welded in place. Of course this would be an expensive repair.


That's why I'm concerned if this will be a long tern and continuously spreading problem

Hugh
