    Bodywork needed on rocker panels

    Anyone do work on rockers here? Looking to get my 99 century done. The driver side rocker is the bad side. I know there are a couple guys on here who do bodywork on the side but don't remember who they are.

    can anyone recommend someone?

    Those Centuries are famous for that rocker rot. They'll run forever...if you can keep them from rotting from the ground up.
