Glen - sounds like you need a fender/body replacement if it's that bad. A down'n dirty way that'll get a lot of jeers around here would be to bolt some small angle on the backside of the fenders and lay new metal on that. If the fenders are still sound enough to weld on then a MIG or even a good acetylene weld (not brazing, but weld) although brazing might be an option too. Hard to tell you how to fix something I can't see!

Glen,
I have a idea that just might work,
take a power wire brush to the area and clean it real good, than run to your local hardware stoor buy a box of JBcantWELDathing and spread it out nice and thick, let dry, sand to smooth finish and paint.
Should not have to worry about it rusting out again as JBcantWELDathing has no metal in it.

Thanks! I try my hardest for what little time but even less money that i have and the conditions that i work in. I got booted out of the garage so i have to work in a barn where i have to run my own electrical to and i cant use my dads power tools so ive have to do everything with sandpaper that i get form anyone.

Anthony, get yourself a cheap 4" angle grinder and a sanding wheel attachment with an assortment of sanding disk grits. Whole setup should only cost about $30 and should last long enough to sand down your tractor parts. Be sure to wear a dust mask.
