Iam wedging my first car. I have already cut the speaker deck out of it. When you late the trunk back do you cut off the back flap, or do you bend it straight. Also do you torch out the back headlight boxes. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

that car was pretty rusty got the body ripped off the frame just when it started to bend perfectly ill have to up load them but
flatten out trunk lid slide it all the way inside weld to back quarters then put a floor jack with a big block of wood on it jack down the trunk weld plates in front and back and smooth out sides with a sledge hammer bc when its flat hitting it with a sledge it will just bounce and a jack has better control than a backhoe
