Thanks for all the comments. I can rebuild the car the way it should be. Unfortunately the owner is very cheap and doesnt want to buy replacement panels. I can fabricate the rusted out panels, but not in the time frame required.
I say 1500hours worth of work, because thats roughly what it will require. Needs to go out to paint in 90 school days, 3 hours a day in the shop. I simply lack the man power. I am the only person in the school of 2200 that knows how to do body work and weld.
The car can be fixed, the owner cannot. I'll do my best to get the project done right. I dont care if its finished by May 20th or not. Its going to be done right, or not at all. You cant rush things like this or it will end up just the way it started, all bondo.
