Default Rust restoration

So I’m trying to fix this rust damage and was wondering if they sell any premade lips/channels for this back trunk area on a 79 Camaro. Otherwise I’m stuck fabricating everything with sheet metal myself. Let me know if you guys have any advice or tips on this process thanks.

That is considered part of the quarter panel. I have never seen patch panels for that. I would guess that in most cars if the top is rusted the bottom is also so most guys would oppt to replace the whole thing. As a general rule spot welding is easier then seam welding and much less hours. Your case may be different, but I am guessing that is the reason it is not massed produced. Course companies are coming out with new stuff all the time so it is always possible someone has come out with some recently.
