just out of interest how many hours of welding would you estimate to complete that shell ?

looks like a huge amount of work and probably way more that most would take on.. It look pretty rotten everywhere you can see....

Is this pretty normal for the state of these cars or is there some kind of sentimental reason for repairing this particular one.. Guess they are not so common anymore so you have to restore what you can get hold of..

Look forward to seeing progress on this..
