any ideas to fill in the outer wheel well after I've raised the bed 2". This piece was swiss cheese so new ones have to be made.

Don't understand the question. Raise the bed 2"??? Why??? Fill the wheel openings on the bed sides???

It looks like an excellent repair on the outer fender.
What is your next challenge?
You might want to move this to your build thread.

Check out some of 67cheby builds.
The threads are long but full of great ideas.

I raised all the bolt holes and cut out the lower inner well. My question is any ideas on filling in this area for more tire clearance
