: rust in lower panels

Hello All
I have just stripped a front fender on my 67 ss, I discovered that there is a few pinholes of rust in the lower panel. they are not close together and only about 3 of them. My question is can I put some por-15 then prime it and be ok. I know that a patch panel will be best but for only a few pinholes?? I know that the other fender will definately have to have the patch panel.

Thanks

Pin holes are like ants.

More than likely the entire lower area under the brace is paper thin. It would be a rare fender that only had three pin holes and balance of cavity between brace and lower fender is not failing also.
