Keith-
Must be pretty rusty!  Few people actually "like" to do rustoration for a
living, which certainly contributes to the high quotes .  Why not buy a $500
Mig welder, some basic tools, a box o' Band-Aids and give it a try?  The
$$$$ is yet another factor in many folks decisions to make the LBC hobby a
DIY affair....
Don't forget that Tetanus Booster shot!

I need some help understanding the body work market. I am trying to have the

floorboard and rockers installed on my TR4 and some work done on the rear 
where the fenders meet the tub. I have gotten several quotes ranging from 
$2500 to $5000. These prices seem outrageous. I can buy another car for 
those prices, but that would seem like such a waste since I just had the tub

blasted. Are these prices in line with the current market? How much does it 
cost to buy a rust free tub? Thanks for all of your help
