    Do you mind me asking how you're going about the repair? What tools/bits your using, and what thickness steal your welding back it, etc.
    I'm about to start something similar, and just want as much info as possible. Thanks, Derek.

    sheet metal wise 1.6 mm is a better matirial doesn't bend easily tho dad rekons that 1 or 1.2mm is easier to work with but not as strong but you get that, we've been using a mig angle grinder and various panel beaters hammers and tid bits lol we even have a anvil in thre shed that dads mate made for him with his nick name in it i'l take a foto of it lol it comes in handy lol

    I've always liked this one styling/colour wise. And you've got a jblood front bar now, too...



    btw, what did you use to get a clean cut when doing the rear qtrs? an angle grinder wont do that (easily)
