Not a hard fix. Cut out the middle (green bit) Clean all the sides up then put a flat plate in there. On the top (in the boot) cut the metal back so you can see in the chassis leg, as i bet that's rotten too. Then you can work out if you need to remove the end and replace. Then weld a flat plate in from the top over the holes. Joining bottom and top plates.

Not that bad, ashamed to say i had to do the same in mine. Due to the sunroof drain being blocked.
Thanks Benn... I knew I could rely on you for a reply. I know where needs cutting and replacing... My problem is getting in there to cut it, I can't get my grinder in there enough to make a neat job.
i use a dremel with small cutting disc. takes a while and a good few discs.

Cut what you can out, then grind the rest to 1 remove left overs, 2 clean up for welding.
Grinder, or a belt sander. One of the best tools i own.
I made plates up like this... They dont look neat there, but everything with trimed and made nice.

Good work, looks awkward and annoying lol
The front end fit is very good for a Nova, I spent hours trying to get mine half as good as that!

Now looking at this, what was the chassis leg like under? As it looks a bit crispy... Unless it's just the pic....
