Making the apron removable, but also making some rust repairs. It's likely not a salvageable apron, but it'll work for now.
A few words about my videos: these episodes document my efforts to restore an old VW Bug and are not intended as how-to's. I am a professor of English by trade, and I have no formal mechanic training (which is often quite obvious). I'm also into making semi-interesting/entertaining videos showing how I've gone about my restoration work. But I make no guarantee that my results will be your results, nor that you will remain injury free if you try to do what I did. You may harm yourself, others, and/or your car if you copy me. If you do, that's your fault, not mine. Please be safer than I am, make safety first not third, and do not do anything if you don't know what you are doing. If you have any doubts at all, consult a qualified automotive professional, and pay him or her to do it right and safely.

lucky, the factory spot welds look like it was massive stress release for the workers, that or it is were they had the workers that showed up drunk. 43 welds on the driver side and 67 or the passenger side of my beetle. I never finished it.

A little body hammer work and it will be good as new. If you remember, what did you have your welder set too? I'll be welding mine with my Harbor freight flux core Welder.

My little Lincoln has four intensities, A-D. I had it on B. Wire speed about 1.5-2. Used .035 flux core wire.

Are those bolt heads going to interfere with the fenders when you try to put them back on?

The plan is to drill holes in the fender for the bolts to pass through. I just don't want to put them in the fenders yet, not until they are mounted for the last time and I feel good about their fitment.

Since you took the rear apron off why you didn't do the same from the donor 69 instead of hacking off the tab for the rear decklid?

I was trying to save as much of the original sheet metal as I could, plus practice my welding skills.

Are you using flux core or gas?
@SchoolStGarage

Flux. Most of my welding is under less than ideal conditions: dirty metal, outdoors, me as the welder. I first started welding patch panels on my old Willys CJ3A in the backyard where the shielding gas would've been blown away anyway, so I just do flux.
