Looks like you need a door post.
Maybe a sill depending how far back its spread.
Maybe a door step.
And patching to the inner arch/innerwing panel area.

Advice really, someone to give me some guidance.

I cant weld either :grin: but got loads of steel and a welder to play with and a whole mini. :saywhat:

If you wouldnt mind popping over one night i'd be very grateful.

Hi, im a newbie but I do have some idea!! Your motor looks pretty much in the same state as mine when I started it. Im now on the road and holding together nicely. My problems are mechanical. I dont have any work in progress pics but you can see the end product. I do my own welding/resparay's as well so I wouldnt mind coming along and having a look for you. Im in Sheffield about an hour or so away.

Cheers fella's,

That would be wicked. Need some idea of what panels to buy, how much to cut back. Which panel to start with ect. Not too fussed about the front end as i`m going to flip it. Just need some help getting me started.

Just Pm me a night when your free and we`ll sort it out.

Cheers for your help guys, was all ready to chuck it on Ebay when I saw that mess. BUT soon came to me senses, just wasn't ready for the shock :-
