Thanks Danny. I do not plan to use it in the winter as long the repairs hold. I'm not sure what I am going to do with my snow tires, I might sell them or get them fitted on one of the other cars.

Sounds like you have some real artisans there doing metalwork. I'm sure that we have specialty shops here doing similiar work but may be more high end.

I think he did more welding on my repair than what the pictures indicated. He had told me that day that the patch on the drivers side was "just tacked in place for now". The passenger side was done differently he used a modern adhesive. He said the metal was pretty thin and didn't think it would do well with a large amount of welding. I read up on it a bit prior to the work and most of what I read was positive.
