Hello, this is my first post, i own a 1971 volkswagen beetle that i am in the process of restoring to driving quality.

The bug which has been named Betty, is lovely, newly rebuilt 1300 engine but is suffering from a lot of rot which has taken me a good part of 2 years to get rid off. when i came to spray the car ('im doing all the work myself including the paint job as my wallet is a bit thin) i put the first coat of primer on an noticed that there was something weird about the passenger and driver side panels just behind the doors. on the drivers side the panel seems to indent drop about an inch and the comes back out while on the passenger side the panel just goes straight down. i'm not sure if this is so a runner can be fitted or hat there has been some dodgy body work done before i bought the car.

Any help on this would be much appreciated.

thank you.
