Body work prices???
Hi people, I am nearly at the stage where my frst will be ready for someone to do some welding for me, can anyone give me a ballpark figure on price for the items I need done,
Both front wings
Both full sills
Both inner and outer rear arches
Rear valance
Battery tray
I have had this car now for 16 years and its been standing in my garage for about 6 of them now the time has come to revive it to the former glory it once was.
I am also looking for someone in the north wales area that could do this work for me and the respray also, any help or advice greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Mark.

That was everything, welding, body prep and paint. I kinda knew it would be about the £2G mark

Re: Body work prices???
2k is cheap for that kind of work especially if its a proper bodyshop most of them prefer the quick dent/scratch repairs ,in and out jobs so to say
Would think prices for that kind of work can easily stretch to 4k plus especially if oven baked paint job
Hard to comment as like always with rust, a small patch that needs repairing always ends up a massive one after all the tinworm has been cut out ....
