Easier said then done, and i probably paid way to much for my hatch....but i didnt have to do rust work. I love to see a hatch being saved. Props man.


Thanks man, I tried finding one with no rust to but its almost impossible without paying over 4 grand. Which is a lot for me haha.

In my opinion,

The best way to get really good at it is watch a YouTube video am entry what you see welding is like hunting you have to be patient and call take your time and they always look great :thumb: :thumb:

Thanks! It definately has taken a long time in order to do all this. I didnt think there was this much rust when I started, but i kept finding it. I also replaced a bunch of rust from my wheel well. there were literally hoes in my wheel well, no wonder why everything rusted over.
