Hey guys. I have a chunk of rust in my wheel well I need to cut out, and weld in a piece of sheet metal. I've never welded, but I'm sure I can clean up and cut out the old rusty shit. Would anyone be able to lend me a hand that has a welder? I'm tired of seeing my engine bay when I have the wheel off

Beer, cigarettes, parts, cash, or some combination of these are available in return.

on the inside, right where it connects to the frame rails. I knew about it for 3 years. I was always to lazy to just sand that shit and paint it, now I pay for it...I'll let you know if anything turns up.

The actual welding is probably the easiest part. If you can clean up the damaged area and cut out a nice patch, maybe you could rent a welder for a day?
