Cutting and welding rust
L7back - August 17th, 2013 at 08:31 AM

Tried this thread in Paint and body with no luck so I thought I'd give it a go here.
Does anybody know of a company capable of cutting & welding rusted body panels in the Bankstown area? I want to get the body of my Beetle solid before I have her totally resprayed. There are a couple of Panel Beaters in the area that claim to be restoration specialist, but these days people claim all sorts of crap. Just listen to the Election advertising. Who the hell can you trust?

Either no one is in backstown or there's no one they can recommend?

There's plenty of smash repair companies in Bankstown but it seems these days they all screw damaged panels off then screw new ones on.
:( Might have to give the Guy's at RAW down in Campbelltown a ring.

Nils you may be right. Bankstown is the home of the fully sick V8!:no:
