ButtersThatsMe

Thanks for the input guys. I'll have to keep an eye out for dirt cheap panel sections from other cars to "reduce, reuse and recycle". Might even pick up a thrashed rolla and pick it apart for donor steel as well as any good bits and pieces to swap and send it to the scrap yard when I'm done.

Howdy all, I've had my rolla for a few months now and after tackling the main faults (rear wheel bearings, dodgy alternator and other frustrating electrical faults :rant: ) I think it's time to tackle some of the rust on the body. Namely around the fuel door, a spot on the roof and the bottom of the rear guards on both sides. Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to which sort of sheet metal I should be picking up to use for the repairs? What sort of thickness? Also does it need to have any special coatings? From what I can gather it should be zinc anneal. I had a good search around the forum but couldn't find anything specific mentioned. Thanks for the help.
