Mini welding
Just purchased myself a c plate mini in need of some bodywork.
Can anyone recommend a welder who has knowledge of minis who operates in northwest(even better wigan😜
Needs inner and outer sills, a panel and front wing. Probably uncover more rust later
Thanks
Steve

if you dont get much response then try theminiforum,

measure twice, cut once, scrap it, start again.

This is the locostbuilders forum so I would suggest you buy a decent welder (not a pants hobby one) and do it yourself. How hard can it be :£

There are lots of quotes for welding stuff on the various mini forums and these days it seems to run about £360/£400 per side for inner and outer
sills, probably door step, floor pan, flitch repair patches as well included.
You can easily spend a thousand quid on what looks like a reasonably good mini.
It's not easy to weld thin metal well, but with practice you should be able to do it good enough
