Is this a difficult repair? Whats involved?

Cheers, Rich

Crumbs! Was that the one offered for £3k or more recently? Restoration didn't last long.

The repair is body off and needs a jig. See http://www.renault4.co.uk/renault-4-chassis-welding.htm and http://www.renault4.co.uk/gordini-outerrrsusp.htm

That car looks like it has been patched in the same area before. It's much easier to repair a car that has not been patched than a botched one. I would leave it alone.

Thanks Malcolm, I will take your advice and keep looking!

The car is on ebay at present.

It can be done without taking the body off. But I totally agree with Malcolm. I wouldn't do it.
