Coming soon Owen. Did you check out the Flickr page? That shows the extent of what is needed.
I spoke to the welder today and I'm going to see it soon this week.

Thanks owen.

Update on Car.

Spoke to the guy yesterday about the car. its an even bigger job than I had imagined as he needs to replace more on the underside of the car. I went to see it and the holes are phenomenal...

Price wont change but timeframe is. Will upload pictures later in the week...

Hopefully will be back to me mid December.

UPDATE:
Car needs much more work than first expected. It is now getting lots more replaced....
Both sills inners and outers
Inner arches
Complete floorpan
Front wings
Front panel
Inner front panel
Jacking points
Crossmembers
Floor supports.


Car is well and truly rotten. To weld up it needs a frame welding into it to hold it in one place to actually keep it square.
