Hello everyone,
I recently discovered rust on my 94 9000 aero around the passenger side shock tower. I was doing the headgasket and swapping the turbo so I put off fixing it. It rusted through and broke about a week ago and I've been hunting to find a solution ever since. Anyone who is good with bodywork and has a suggestion for what I should do would be greatly appreciated. Other than this, the car is rust free. I just replaced the windshield and there wasn't even any rust around there at all, so this has really caught me off guard.
Would I be best off going and cutting an entire section out of a parts car and welding a new section in?
Thanks,
Chad
