Hey All, I am replacing my inner and outer rocker panels on this 1949 Jeepster. I have everything clamped up fairly well but now I struggle with to lap weld or butt weld the new rockers, especially towards the back wheel. My biggest hesitation is in cutting away so much good metal to make the butt weld.

Lap welding will allow me to keep that good metal and put new metal over it. Not to mention easier for this unskilled welder.

Looking for feedback.

P.S you ever watch those cars resto shows where they spread bondo over the body like they're frosting a cake and say, "someday somebody is going to have to deal with that." That's me now.
