bought a williams 3 at the weekend for £400.it needs alot of bodywork doing like sills,rear arches,front inner arches and some under the front screen behind the ecu.its got 104 thousand miles and drives really well,i can do all the work myself but, just wondering if its worth doing.

If you can do it all yourself then I would say yes.

The entire section under the windscreen is a single part you can order from Renault. Can't be that hard to do...surely?

If you can do it yourself and it's not going to cost more than £1.5k, go for it!
