what? his seatbelt female ends are in that picture... what are you asking?
I'm actually about to make a speaker box, one for a subwoofer in the rear well. I still think fiberglass sticks to steel damn well, and it's an old wives (err, husbands) tale that it'll fall off in a few days...
I wouldn'ta done THAT job with fiberglass though, needs more strength. I just did smaller holes with it. That's a good job there.
haha, I shower pretty regularly, once a day alright but not always right after working on my car, hence the stench.
Im about to pick up a new shell for my car and it does have rust on it since im not going to the US for cars anymore (too much hassle and cost) so I want to find a good body man in that area since my car club operates out of Toronto as well and may be able to get a deal or something.
PM me the body shop's name so I can give them a call since the quality of the work is definately there.

The name of the place is "AutoWeld" - complete undercarriage rust repair & fabrication
The name of the guy who runns it (he works alone) is "John"
I have to warn you though, never judge a book ny it's cover
What I mean by that is, when you see this place, it doesn't look like much. It's a single garage shop with only enough space inside for 1 car at a time. No fancy computers or tools or anything "high-tech" of any kind
It's a small shop with a hydrolic lift and that's about it. The owner doesn't exactly come off as the friendliest most cheerful person either ... but he's still a stand-up guy who obviously knows what he's doing. He won't try to screw you over or anything like that. He's a really good guy.
Hope this helps.
Let us know if you decide to have him do any work for you !!

If you have to use a shop, that;s usually the best kind to go to. If the guy's got all the "hight tech" toys and fancy tools, that's usually because he's been ripping people off and can afford it. Also stay away from guy's that can "decorate" their shop with all kinds of fancy automoblie memoribilia.

Thanks for response. He is about 5 hours from me in Northern New York. This will require some research. Getting the car there may require some work, thought, and creative transporting.
