REMOVAL OF STEEL PANELS
Begin by drilling out the spot welds along the door post, along the bottom edge forward of the wheel well, and at the seam where the Quarter Panel meets the tailgate. Usually these welds are visible enough, but gentle lifting pressure under the folded edge with a screwdriver or chisel will make them impossible to miss. You needn't drill all the way through both layers; just enough to pop the weld is adequate. The rusted arc of the wheel well itself is usually pretty mangled, so just separate the inner from the outer as best you can. Tin snips are in order here, as are gloves to protect against sharp edges. We've found that the best place to cut along the top edge is approximately 1/2" down from the crease or shoulder which separates the flat top surface from the curved side skin. Cut as straight as possible along a line 1/2" down from that shoulder, all the way from the door post to the tailgate. Once the skin is removed, be sure to remove the entire outer piece of the wheel well itself -- again by drilling out the spot welds which join the two pieces. The replacement.

How do you remove the quarter panel on a 1987 Chevy Celebrity?
The quarter panels are spot welded in place, they are not meant to be readily removed. I have seen a couple of different approaches to remove a damaged quarter panel. Neither was done by a professional body man, I would not recommend either. In one instance the person drilled holes where all of the spot welds were and with some effort was able to remove the panel. In the other case the person used a saw to cut the panel off. My personal thought is if you want a good professional job take the car to a good body shop. Anyone else care to add to this?
