The journey begins! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) "im sorry it was without your consent, but you are ALL now my new mentors, educators, and general eFriends/maybe some day REAL friends. Look forward to that noob-to-educated resource transition! " here's kind of where i basically started: Thanks Everyone! |

im all healed... Good to hear you're healed. As I told my brother after he unsuccessfully used his face to stop a 500lb vending machine from hitting the ground, next time jump OUT of the way instead of IN the way. Things can be replaced, but you can't. QUOTE anyone that has outsourced their floorpan and hell hole repair to a professional, what information do i need to provide to them? The only thing they need to know is how much money you have. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) For the $500-$1000 or more that you will pay to get this work done, go out and buy yourself a nice welder and have at it. Take a class, buy a video, ask a friend; welding is not super difficult. Actually it's a lot of fun. I taught myself through reading on the web and trial and error. My bro-in-law is a welder for the railroad and he gave my lots of tips and instructions. I still suck at it but I'm getting better with every weld. Before you know it, you'll have welded a cage in your car. BTW, keep up the good work and pics. |
