SL500 R107 1982 Advice Please!

[MB-SL500]

Recently purchased an SL500 R107, after much deliberation!

Need some advice please...

I knew that the front floor pans (inside and under body) need attention; but would like the best advice on getting this sorted!

Am NW London based and looking for a good (reasonable) welder!

Any suggestions much appreciated...

Good luck with the repairs - would be nice to see some pics of your car?

PS it's a 500SL rather than an SL500

Easiest way is to upload them to a free hosting site like PhotoBucket. Then you put a link in your post here, and the picture is displayed.

Managed a profile "avatar" which shows the car. Will upload after I've worked on it!
