What should i do?

(1/4) > >>

muddymart:
After removing the bumper i noticed  the rear body x member had rotted all way through, and at least a 1/4 of each sill had rotten too,
The rest of the disco seems pretty solid, and has been faultless for nearly a year.

Should i A, get it all welded up with nice new bits

or B: Throw the money i would spend above and p/x for a 5 door,
though   i dont mind the three door, and im eager to get some mods done,

PPPPPPPPPlease help, i'm sure a couple of you have been in this situation before

Disco Matt:
You won't get much in part exchange with these problems. If everything else is sound, I would be inclined to weld it and then make sure everything is well painted and waxoiled after. That way, you know you have a solid car to work from.

Jim-Willy:
Al on here is local and will weld it up for sensible money.

Ja1983:
i`d check your boot floor aswell, if the x-members gone, chances are its spread from the boot floor! (mine has just been replaced, and was quite bad!)
