Good for you, Roger. Congratulations. You and others like you have
inspired me to invest in a MIG welder and attempt to remove and replace my
own rusted body panels. I'm going to try cutting out and replacing the rear
valance. If I can do that, then perhaps I'll feel confident enought to
tackle the rest.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Best wishes,
