On the passenger side when I knock on the quarter sounds diffrent than the other side. What caught my eye was the weld toward the back by the bumper? Any tips see if it is replacement panel?

The magnet holds on there ok it's the weld where the quarter meets the back doesn't match the otherside though

It has been replaced.
Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

The wheel lip on repro 1/4 panels is way different(wider and cut different)than the factory 1/4 panel wheel opening.
I tell my body guy who did my drivers side 62 1/4 to make it like the stock one so you can't tell. Most body shops would not do this.
