We were thinking of doing this on my 85 GL... some of
the dammage that I got one winter tore up a seam and
the rust is getting bad there.  In order to fix the
problem, Fred suggested that we just eliminate the
seam and then we wouldn't have to worry about
searching for a pannel that doesn't exist. (to
purchase)  Then clean up the rest of the 'gon to get
rid of any other seam rust and make the whole thing
match.
