I like your last few pictures of holes surrounded by rust.

Just how much can you replace before having to re-register the job as a new vehicle

Looks like you have your work cut out ....

Please keep the pictures coming they are revealing to say the least but they are informative as well.

Default Even More Photo's

When I first started cutting metal away and found that amount of rust I did begin to wonder. Still, I have started now so I should try and finish it. Below are some of the early photo's. I still feel the shudder down my back just looking at them...
