Anybody succeeded in getting  SILLS  done, inner and outer, both sides, on an estate (mine is 1991) for less than 500 quid? Blimey! I've found the pattern sills, but welders aren't interested. MOT bloke said it was worth doing cos the car is so clean. Rest of car just luvly. Really sad to kill it.

You could always help them out and strip the car interior first, that way your sure it won't get damaged and you will put it back with a great deal more respect than the metal fusion engineers Wink

Im laying up my Carlton gsi in December as it needs an outer sill and work to the inner rear arch. Dam those side skirts for hiding the rust. I guess it helps owning a car and commercial garage. Might start a prep for re-spray. (Yellow me thinks)
