Panel adhesive?
I have read the references to panel adhesive used by several posters in regards to body work.
Would that work on replacing the lower quarter panel as opposed to welding?
I do not own a welder and am looking for alternatives to ridding my Bronc of cancer.

Panel adhesive?
they have a product called fusor,it is a structural panel adhesive that works good.they have 3 diffrent set up times,5 mon,30 min,and 60 min,this is basically setup/working time.get the panel clamped where you like it,then put the adhesive on the back,dont worry about excess squeezing out,the glue is watertite,clamp it then wait depending on the time you used.the 5 min will setup in 5 min,if it isnt in place in the 5 min,where it is when it sets up,thats where it will be.just make sure the back of the piece is clean and rough it up just a little bit.
you will need a special gun to use fusor,it is a 2 part expoxy with a nozzle that mixes it for you,no guessing on how much you need to use.
we use it on all patch panels we put on.it saves us a lot of welding and bondo work.

Panel adhesive?
Thanks for the info!
If I am replacing the lower quarter panel (I guess that is what I would be replacing on my Bronco if the wheel wells are rusted out), how would I clamp that in place? Would I have to use rivets? Or would those deep clamps liek those used by woodworkers work?
