I have some rust under the seats (surprise!). I had planned to just use "POR15 Patch" on.
But maybe I should get a couple of these patched with steel&weld? Welding is beyond my capabilities so I'd have to find a local shop to do it - I don't like others messing with my car plus $$ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Opinions? Driversside...  Driverside firewall...  Pass. firewall/door corner...  Possible structural issues with this one...  |

Get a welder and just start practicing. Many of us here have done exactly that. Classes are good, but you probably don't need that level of instruction.

Zach If I can do it, anyone can. I took a weekend welding class offered through a local community college. I learned some good things to get me started then practiced a bunch on scrap pieces before touching the car. YOU CAN DO IT! |
