I would say mates rates ?100 (if you are doing it properly), bearing in mind the cost of materials, sheet steel, some kind of bracing for chassis rails, underseal and paint. Not to mention the 4hrs work

yeah thats fair enough i was thinking of just the welding, suppose ?100 would be a proper good drive in drive out job
