    Hi Guys,

    I drive a VS Series 1 Calais. There is a bit of rust on the back left hand side. There is also some other bits of body damage but this is the one in most urgent need of repair. Anyway I was woundering if any of you guys could tell about how much it would cost to get removed, and if you guys knew of anywhere in south australia where i could get it done cheap. Anyway here are some pics so you can see the damaged. Any help would be appreciated, cheers.

    Gettiing a cheapy done is likely to have it end up looking the same after a while cause it looks like it has been repaired in that area before.

    There's a few backyarders around... have you tried the Trading Post ?

    As far as i know it has never been repaired for rust, as my grandfather bought it when it was 2 years old. It was the attorney-generals car before that and I am sure my grandfather never had any body work done on it. Um i haven't had a look in the trading post but i do want it to look good, Um but anyone got a price range i will be looking at.

    Unfortunatly when getting panel repair done by professionals, there is never really a bargin. If one place is cheaper than other places, chances are the job being done is of low quality and will leave you with problems not too long down the track. The best places to go are those that have a good reputation for a quality job.
