Side panel welding

Post by meggles »

I can weld, enough to get through MOT's. What I really need is a good welder to weld a genuine panel into place , in a proper fashion. The panel in question is the offside panel below the rear window. It will need to be an excellent job at a sensible price. Somewhere near to York. To warn you, some tw@t has bodged like Hell and welded over the seams on the lower half of the panel. There is now no seam!!! This will be a tw@t of a job. Bids welcomed but I want a fixed price for a first class job!!! I have warned you so please don't expect a quick fix/lot's of cash job!!
PM me please for location. You will be supplied with copious amounts of tea and a hook up if it takes you to an overnight stop! I will require a fixed price, not an estimate. PLEASE!!! only 80-90 members to do the job. Let's keep it in house eh!
Thanks

No, sorry. But thanks for offer.
I got a quote from someone who quoted "Plus bodyfiller" I asked for cost of that and he said "about £25" :shock:

Ahh, its probably the self smoothing one with added pixie dust in it that keeps the rust monster away. Its is quite expensive!!

Funny, I thought it was the one with the paint already in it, as long as you wanted "PINK" :oops: or grey! Or maybe the one with gold dust!!

Thanks for that, but it's a bit of a way from me. I'm going to try the local place, but they always seem to be so busy (good recommendation I suppose). Might even have a go myself :shock:
