Passenger side quarter was next to strip. All kinds of surprises hiding under the paint on this side.

It's tough to see in the pics, but the jam was pushed back and in at one time. The 'repair' was to bash it out to not even close and then braze a rod on the corner of the jam to simulate the corner. It was at least 1/4" 'high' most of the way down this rod. The area below the trim back about 18" from the door opening was also pretty rough.

The rocker panel was also caved in at the front and then brutally pulled out in about five spots. The whole lower area of this rocker and quarter back to the wheel opening was pretty rough. No significant rust, just body damage. The rear part of the quarter was pretty good. A shallow crease for probably 15" or so and a couple of high/low spots.

Time to order more sheetmetal. New outer rocker and front lower section of the quarter panel on the way.
