You could do anything you want, even fibreglass it....depends whether you just want a quick fix, or the job done right.
If repair panels are available, that makes life a lot easier as you can buy them, get the correct shapes and then cut/replace what is needed.
If you need to fabricate repair sections...it takes a lot more work.
But that strip of rut could be cut out, make a repair section to clean metal and seam weld it in.
Recently spotted this on the MIG welding forum.....he's definitely keen !
