While it would seem like a good idea to leave as much of the good quarter-panel on the car, Rusty pointed out that it would be much easier to remove the whole panel, especially considering we were replacing a number of items that attached to the quarter-panels.

While sanding the area down, I also came across of few small rust holes in the roof just above the seam.
