ask your local exhaust joint.. after you cut a neat hole and a patch

when i had my gemini with a rusted spare wheel well, i made the patch out of a drum lid and hammered it to shape and made a neat fit. they welded it for $50.. wasnt show car but was plenty good enough.

yeh thats an idea. i just was thinking maybe some welders want to go back a certain distance. so i just left it there for a second opinion then cut it back.

but yeh i dont have a welder. and last couple times i tried to weld i welded like crap and like to put things on fire. sort of something i feel like i given up on. now especially because i dont have the same co-ordination as i use to.

 

 

would the sections be the same there from a sedan to a ute?
