Picked up these today.
They are for a 1200 ute so are too short for a sedan, they only go to the b pillar. but thats all good. it has all the fron half.
Got them from BE Carparts for $55 a side

passenger side is complete getting started on drivers side. Spent all of yesterday cutting out stuff and cleaning up getting ready to do some tacky tacky today.

The guy who did the "repairs" on this should be shot!
He told garth he was a panel beater. Panel beater my fucking ass. He hasn't cut out a single piece of rust. Just tacked steel in over top of rust and caked on seam sealer/bathroomm RTV and house paint.
One patch was made of 2mm galv! wtf! Some people are fucking retards
Any way, i'll have some more pictures to up date later today.

Hahaha in a way it was fun yesterday seeing what sort of muppet work we would uncover the further you cut into it. Lucky I now have someone who knows what they are doing on the case!

You guys are doing a great job on the rust repairs.

I had enough dam trouble filling in some holes, how the hell you guys make it look so easy is beyond me.

Keep it up !
