yes...structurally the car is really straight with little rust hence no major structural repairs required as illustrated in the boot floor work, the boot lid, floor pan patching work and cross members in the engine bay area.....
....the "surprises" I found was in the sheet metal and it wasnt rust!!!
It had some very bad repair work in the past...This also goes for the sill....bad repair work
...therefore the common option would have been to repair to try and undo this...but I opted to replace the panels to keep the labour costs down from the panel beaters persepctive..and also to have the piece of mind that there will be minimum bogg and end up with a far more superior result.
I want it to last a few generations after me...!
