Default Ng for bodywork and refinishing?

Hi there,
I wanted to know if any of you knew of a ng to discuss autobody work, paint,
panel retrofits, etc? Is that fair game here? I need advice about how to
tackle a bad quarter panel and rocker. I don't know if I should cut one out
of a donor car or patch the existing one. The rocker has a fist-sized
rusted hole under the door and the rear quarter was mangled a little when
the tire flatted on the highway. The car is a 1992 Nissan 240sx that I
would like to keep a few more years or more. I assume to pull the whole
quarter I would have to drill spot welds, pull the window, bumper, etc...
It seems like a lot of work for someone with minimal bodywork experience but
I do want to tackle this as a shadetree project.

Thanks.
Andrew.
