Apparently my rear wheel well and under body are too rusted to pass safety so I need a place that can cut and weld in new metal under there. Any recommendations? Mississauga area if possible. Cheers ---

Are you serious? Just visit another shop. Try the finch and milvan area, there’s like 20 shops hurting for business. ---

I’ve seen people use newspaper and resin, cured and painted to pass safety… just saying 😛 All the safety guys are looking for is holes into the cabin, if you have holes, exhaust can get in, all exterior holes below the window sill have to be sealed — if you’re in a jamb, buy some aluminum sheet and rivets, drill and pop your way to your happy place, spray with tar based undercoating after, add fire for extra fun times ---

Update! Finally got my car back from the shop. They managed to patch the wheel well holes and rocker panels appear to be fixed nicely (hopefully no more brown 11 on the driveway…). This thing better be able to get safetied now! Spending money on restoration kinda sucks, I won’t have much leftover for fun mods… but I didn’t have it in me to scrap this car so soon.
