So I've got a disco 1 and obviously it's a bit rusty!! Chassis is brilliant. and mountings all good. Front crossmember has been replaced. It's starting to rot a bit in the wheel arches and the boot floor has just started to go in the usual spot. I can weld patches and have done for the mot but I want it sorted properly with replacement panels.
So...
What I'm going to have done over the next year by a very compitent mate of mine...
The rear wheel arches. I think just the out part will suffice as the inner seems solid. Is it feasable to just do the outer bit?
The boot floor. Again I would do it but I'm not great with body work so patching is my limit.
The front offside wheel arch has a couple of small holes so I'm going to patch them myself. Is that also a good idea or should I have that replaced properly?
The sills are a little tender but not holed so what's the best option with that?
Also could you suggest the best place to source parts as there are a plethora of different options out there!!
Plus can you give me a rough price guide for each different fix?
I've seen some top jobs done on here so I know I'm in good hands...
Many thanks!!
