Default Quarter panel on a 91 DA

has anyone tried to pull one before? I almost have the quarter panel for the passenger side off but it seems like something is still hanging on. It's loose but won't pull free. Is there anything between the layers that might be holding on?

It's stuff near the door jam just past the passenger front seat belt.

No the Quarter panel itself. I've drilled what I believe to be all the spot welds and made to cuts because I have no desire to mess with the roof line. The sheet metal under the car where the side skirts would be is loose and I pull out freely. However, it seems like something about calf high between the body and outskin is holding on.

No all that is free and moving. It's wierd. You know here the kick panel is where you would be a side skirt. Where it runs under the passenger side door before the fender well. I can reach under the car and grab the metal where you jack it up and pull but as it flexes and starts to come up it stops about half way up the kick panel area..I don't see spot welds there.
