Hi, I finally purchased my 3rd Seicento this time a black sporting 'X' Reg, off ebay for £100:eek:

Having quickly looked at the car underneath there appears to be be a mix of surface rust and holes can anyone please advise where I can find repair panels, this car is brilliant and I dont want to scrap its getting rare to see these now.

Boot floor, (assume rust converter treatment required then stone chip)

Rust to edges of floor and sill lips (main panels ok) (including a 2 pence hole near the drivers seabelt anchor area on floor). (Weld , stonechip)

Drivers jacking point has rusted completely (Can a new repair panel be purchased for this corner?

Rust inside sill cavity - waxoyl?

Any advice will be appreciated.
