I have a 95 hatchback with some signifcant frame rot, does anyone hae some reccommendations where to go to to fix this? ( the car has 220K original motor and clutch) I live in CT. I read an article a couple years ago about a guy who only rebuilt Metros somewhere in the mid west, is he still around? |

IF the car isn't driveable due to frame rot, you should try to have it done locally. However, some of our members are good with welders, maybe one of them could help you out. |

I don't know if either of these guys are close to you. I got them from the mechanic link on the front page. Also, ask if any body is in or near CT, that may be willing to help. A local shop, with a competent welder can repair the frame. They may not want to because of liability issues. If they do, it only takes 2 hours per side from start to finish. PA metro fixer MWebb |
