Hi Tom,

I'm not too familiar with garages/people in Cromer. How bad is it, are you just looking for a patch on the sills or something more major?

[jdmtom1337]

Hi buddy. It's just some patching to be honest. Passenger side foot well needs a bit. Front cross member and maybe some on the sills.

Car currently has no engine in so I can't take it any where at the moment

[Slip_n_slide]

Ah, I see. I know a chap who lives up your way. I'll see if he knows anyone they could help you out.

[jdmtom1337]

By any chance would his name be Matt? Used to own a white s13?

[Slip_n_slide]

No mate, he's a chap called Neil.

Hi Tom. I've had a chat with some people up that way and they can't think of anyone. Sorry

What needs doing Tom? Some pics could be useful, small descriptions etc.
I might be able to help out if the work isn't too extreme

Those are the bits that definately need doing, unsure of any else at present

That front crossmember looks pretty shagged tbf bud. Would probably be best to fully remove that piece and weld in some nice tough box section. And the bit on the floor/door area I would probably clean up with a grinder and rust proof it from both sides then a small patch over the top, then again rustproof and paint.

[jdmtom1337]

Are those something you you would be able to do ? If so at what sort of cost / time scale?

[DB1]

Yeah It shouldn't be too difficult to do, although I am incredibly busy over the next 3-4weeks.
If you are still in need of assistance come the end of feb then I'll gladly help you out Tom.

[jdmtom1337]

Sounds good to me, I will probably get everything sorted on the car bar the rust, try and MOT it then pop up to you, The engine is being delivered this month then its just everything else

Not taking anything away from db1s kind offer but there was a chap in Ipswich that did mobile mig, tig and arc welding and taught it too. Barry at www.atkinswelding.co.UK I haven't used him but he was recommended to me. Might be useful for others looking at the thread.
