Inner arch hole
I have got my test tomorrow and forgot to do anything about a hole I found in the inner rear arch. Will this fail?
If so any suggestions for a quick fix til I can weld it?

Re: Inner arch hole
After much head scratching I think I know where that is...and yes it's a fail as its within 12" of your suspenders...if they see it...mud may help?
Re: Inner arch hole
Ok thanks. Will think of something to patch up quick . Think I got some fibre glass sheets some where.

Re: Inner arch hole
It failed! gutted. Bit not on the inner sill. Chassis corroded at rear, and near side sill. I sense a huge bill coming my way

Re: Inner arch hole
Read some where that the chassis are not prone to corrosion. Possibility it's just surface rust?

Re: Inner arch hole
they can rot anywhere really, chassis is quite a general term. So best to see where it is first
