Hi all, a quick question to those that have had some experience int metal
working on cars..
I looked at a 69 2l last night the car was great except for the rocker
pannels, the body part that frames teh bottom of the door.  The problem:
is that the lower half of the driver side one is gone, that is you can
open the door and see on problems but get on your hands and knees and hey
look a large hole for my arm :-)  The passanger side is not as bad just
places to stick your hand in...  The rest of the car is rust free, and in
great shape?  I have pics getting devloped and will put them on next
monday,

My concerns are cost of getting this fixed, then painting.  I have not
done any metal work before, some weldng n the exaughst, but it doesn't
count.  

It was also my first time to drive a 2L, nice power over a 1600.
