hi all im new round these oarts used to be a member many moons ago , and still got one of me old gte's in the garage !

decided to take it out and see wot it needs for a mot !

Found a load of rot on the back end the rear slam pannel needs replacing i know you can buy those repair pannels but on the underside both rear chissis rails have gone through and the exhast hanger is nolonger attached!! i think they look to bad to repair and the only thing i can think of doing is cutting some pannels out of a less rusty scrapper ??

Any one got any other ideas or suggestions ?

or any one got an old shell they would let me loose on ??

cheers ady.:thumb:

go to the scrap yard with a pair of tinsnips and remove the roof or doorskin off a scrap car, use this as sheet steel to make repair sections and weld them into your rotten nova to make it beautiful again.
the chassis rail will take some care and time to do properly.

get the grinder out, and have fun
