Thanks for the responses everyone so far on this trans=pan thread
So far I have about 6 hours into making this patch...if I had to charge a customer that'd be about 250.00 clams just repair this section of the trans-pan.
If I had a couple of more tools I might be able to cut the time in half...but this is exactly why you can't estimate these types of repairs and make money on them other than by the hour plus materials - most people wouldn't want to pay to fix something like this - to this level - that gets covered up with carpet and undercoating...
Tomorrow I'm going to make the fiberglass cover for the center - thats the plan anyway!
