Which shop did the work?
Did they replace the complete 1/4's with aftermarket panels or did they cut around the rust and replace the spots only?
Looks very nice!

markham auto body (cj fly referral) and he's done some past nice restos on minis and other cars. usually he's just doing regular (insurance) work that keeps them busy these days.
they cut and did new metal by hand. i checked into rear 1/4's and they do not make OEM or aftermarket rears for any 98-01 teg gen (surprising). i did find a set in Cali from JPN but as usual the price was exorbitant. he also said it'd be a waste if my inside metal was rotted (which is was not) to weld the seem to. also wasn't bad enough to need full new rears, so that's good.
