      Thank you for the support 😊. Funny, all this was new to me as well, never welded or painted before, but you go to start somewhere right?

      Hi, i think the most difficult part was the corner piece at the rear, as it is hard to reach with the welder. Also, in a future video you will see the process of cleaning the rust under the car. It was hard for me because I have no lift, so i had limited space to work. Thank you for watching

      Hi, i gor it of Ebay, these are manufactured in Poland. It only cost £125 for the pair, so it was a good deal

    Honestly after selling my speed 6 because of this and keeping my rx-8 that has 0 rust. This is my freaking nightmare

      Yeah, this one is fighting me with all it has, but hopefully the end is in sight 😊 thanks for watching

    That's going to be an insane amount of work. These cars are so cheap these days. Save your time and energy and just get another one for $1000 with zero rust

      It just got a brand new motor, and it is all about the challenge, stick around to see if it was worth it in the end 😉

      @@DIYWorkshop_UK I know it's not worth it. You could have put the motor into a clean body and did something better with your time. I understand if these are rare or old cars that are hard to find, but these things are all over

      Time you enjoy spending is never time wasted, I am learning new skills while doing this and it is actually cheaper than buying a new shell, you are right in one point though, if I could have gotten a cheaper shell, I would have most likely done that, but here in the UK a body with no rust is way more expensive and hard to find
