Howdo guys

Mark here one of the southern most Pantera owners way down in New Zealand.

I'm restoring my Jan 72 and have discovered significant leading (ie 1/4 of 
and inch thick )on the body above the gills  all the way up this allows the 
lines of the car to match with the lines of the lid.

Question:
1) does any one know if this is stock and normal or if some one has stuffed 
it/pranged up and just filled the area to get the lines looking good.??
2) Any reccomendations on best way to make this good . ie a) refill with 
lead(I have no experience with it), b)cut and remake panels (i have some 
experience with this), c) fill with filler (dirty but fast and even my wife 
can do that :) hope she doen't check my emails), d) your suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any comments
