I am debating whether to bite the bullet and attack the
replacement of the drivers side floor, inner sill and
potentially also the outer sill, plus what ever else shows
up once the ''tin is open'', alternatively getting a
recommended body shop to do it. Here comes the question can
anyone recommend a trustworthy body shop ? As a piece of
uninteresting information I can tell you that the last one
to do ''bodywork'' on the car was more familiar with expanding
foam and bodyfiller than sheetmetal and welding :-)

Your insight is appreciated ...
