Removing the entire side of a 30 coupe - 1 piece?

[Dave in MN]

Steve,
It is possible and actually not that difficult. We removed the panel as we were also replacing all the top wood, entire sub rails and the panel needed extensive lower section replacement.
With all that...it just was easier to be able to get at all sides of the repairs.

Catherine's coupe came out stunning. The car was her father's and the people in the photos are Catherine and her family. She was dedicated and worked right with me in my shop every day I did. She spent countless hours media blasting parts and never once complained.
Fun project.
Good Day!
