   sorry john I repied twice but thought that a simple reply method would suffice...here are the missing emails ..with apologies for not checking the responses sooner
John;
Welcome aboard first of all�a 6 is real gem to own�but a friend of mine is the real expert�trust Limerick people to be quiet know-it-alls eh�
The arches are awkward but everything can be repaired�depends upon your budget�my sills weren�t as bad as described mainly due to this �horsetan� chap who vetted the car and was very very very honest indeed�my sills need work but I have, and the car has loads of time available to it�.
You can take a number of options from here�if the inner wings are totally gone then that is structural damage and would need my friend to see it�it depends upon how many welds�the shape of the welds et etc�
The only way to do your 6 if she is struggling structurally is to learn how to weld or get to know someone who can � be prepared to work very hard to stay under budget�
Was this a british or irish car?   Can you drive it around on the roads here? It might be worth a burn to limerick if you could�
Moneywise�
If the outer wings are gone also��600 each�.my sills and yours would be �300 for the sill and then labour on top�jacking points are needed�
Inner wing MAY be a whole new ball game�shaping metal may need experience and/or expertise�.BUT the finish wont have to be immaculate of course�
Send me down a picture or two of it�I am really curious now�was she a good spec otherwise?�all electrics working?�windows not blowing in the wind?�brakes soft?�steering hard work?  Knocking from rear diff? .. or is it driving at all?�Pat, down here in limerick, is always saying that there comes a time to know when to quit�
Send a few pics and lets see�these are a car worth driving�so much more a drivers mobile than any jag or merc you know�and RARE in Ireland�worth the effort if you can spend�
Yours (curious as hell)
trev
 Hope you can pics down to my email...trevornorma@eircom.net

	If the inner wings are gone, it would probably be better to have new inner wings fitted, and to hell with the cost.
