Starting restoration

I am the proud owner of my 3rd 1969 F250. It is good to have one again. I expect to start restoration this spring. The truck has some rust at the front fenders and cab corners. Anyone used the 3M adhesives for rust panel install? What did you think of the product? Any special tools to mate the parts?

Starting restoration

The february issue of Classic Truck has an article on using the apoxy bonding of patch panels. They claim that it is repair method accepted by the insurance companies. I talk to the local auto body supply house and it seems that all the professional body shops are using it.

That's all that I know.
