Owh man, that thing looks like its full of holes.

WTF happened here?

Looks like someone puzzled the pieces back together, how many welding lines are that?

Previous owners didnt care much about the car so all bodywork done was made just to hold the car together, not to fall apart.

Can you fix it? Might be easier to get a new shell?

Oh my sweet gentle jesus!
You should name that FrankenHachi...those wheel wells look awful!.
I would be on the lookout for new wheelwells if I were you. I think it should be possible to replace them altogether.If you cut out the metal behind the back seats you will have easier acces to the wheel wells. Then replace it with some lighter metal beam to reinforce the rear again.

what's an ep7? :lol:
He attacked everything in life with a mix of extrordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which.
