So a was able to work on the car for a couple hours on Saturday. I cut out the panel with the trunk hinges on it (shown in the previous pics). On the plus side the rot pretty much stopped with the top panel the inner panel is OK!
I also made some spacers to start to figure out the flush mounting of the rear glass. Looks like about 1/2 - 5/8" should do the trick. I may go ahead and make a new outer panel from scratch as I think I am going to re-work the hinge area and filler panel areas anyway.
I will try to get some pics tonight.
Chris
