Over the weekend I removed the rear bumper and internal covers etc in preparation for a visit to the Bodyshop to repair the rust in the rear quarters. Driver side has had an attempted repair by someone in the past which wasn't very good to be honest. Passenger side is original and therefor in a bit of state. The only repair panel you can get doesn't go all the way back to the lights ,so the skill of my fabricator comes into play...

Couldn't agree more - I need to find someone to do a similar job on mine, what was the cost, roughly? |

Thanks - Yes, he has cut out the old and replaced it with the new panel part really well. The Bodyshop has done a lovely job on the paint. Total cost for Sills, rear quarters and arches was approx £1350 all in. I also had both sides repaired and resprayed below the swathe line of the doors as I had some scabs in the paint.

My sills are a bit iffy, but if I can get them and obviously the arches sorted for that sort of ball park figure then I am prepared to press the trigger. I'm in my 10th year of ownership and still get a thrill from wafting along in the beast. Costs a fortune to run but hey ho! Previous cars:

Agreed - I'll get some prices locally to see how they match up, mind you, a round trip fuel cost would be a fair overhead these days.... |
