Fender forensics
 

I started to do some investigation on the '66 thats been in my backyard for a year or so and found this under 1/2" of bondo. It looks like the po cut and welded in a new headlight opening - or maybe it's the original headlight welded on to a new but not correct fender?? The right side appears to be the same. Any ideas why?? Also, looking for some thoughts on whether to scrap and replace or continue with the scraping and sanding.

Why? Cause it was wrecked. And then wrecked some more during the "repair".

Find a decent SWB fender and move on. There will be a lot of effort and heartache to make that one work again.

^^^^ This X2. That fender will never be "right". Hours of rework to ultimately end up with another 1/2" of Bondo on it. Turn into wall art and go find a decent fender.

I agree with all comments above. Cut your losses and move forward with new or Un-damaged parts.
