Hello Everyone,
I recently acquired a 1972 911T coupe that had a leaking right rear qtr window which resulted in rust in the rear parcel shelf and right rear seat. The car had previously been converted to a short hood by the PO, so I intend to convert back to a long hood RS clone. The car needs a new front latch panel, battery boxes, and part of the front inner fender near the latch panel needs to be repaired.
I recently stripped down the car to the chassis and had it blasted and powder coated with DuPont primer. I attached a few photos of the car as it is now and you can see where there was rust in the rear.
I am trying to estimate how many hours it would take to fix these three areas assuming that new replacement panels are used, so wanted to see if anyone might have a rough idea on the hours it would take an experienced 911 metal guy to:
1) remove and replace rear parcel shelf?
2) replace or patch rear right seat that had rust?
3) remove and replace front latch panel and weld battery boxes?
Interested in your thoughts on how many hours these repairs might take for purposes of getting bids down the road.
Thanks,
Mike
