So I have an 83 Toyota trekker 4x4 the whole rear is fiberglass, I have beaten this truck so back bad in my prime :) now I want to fix up the fiberglass, the rear main section is bad!!! But the rest is really nice shape.

So I have drilled holes in all or almost all the little cracks everywhere (will finish the drilling soon). I have grinded out all the cracks and will be refiberglassing the inside of all the bad cracks with bondo fiberglass resin.

My question is see attached pics how do I fill in the huge gaps and cracks on the front side will out using a filler to do it so it has some strength?

If it is metal u need to cut the spots and from the backside weld a plate then filler it. But if it is fiberglass then tape across Tue front and glass the back then filler the front when done
