My rocker panel is rusted out but it hasnt gone past there to the frame, floor, or anywhere else.it seems to be the outer spot right beliw the drivers door. Is this fixable somehow?https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190426/73b7fee63db70e83a6a35aa89cc02278.jpg

There's a small questions thread just for this :duh:
Anything is fixable if you got the money.

I seriously doubt it's just the rocker panels. There's got to be more hiding. Like potatoe said, people fix just about anything, just a matter of money and time. Me personally i would throw it away.

Cut out all the rust
Weld in new metal
Coat it and paint it properly

Geez guys
Op, do you know how to weld?
In the Silvia republic Facebook group, there is a member by the name of Steve Richardson. He makes replacement rockers. It’s somewhere in Europe so shipping will be crappy.
Or take it to local body shops for a quote?

Me personally i would throw it away.Its just the rocker. We got under the car and looked everywhere else. And its not spread anywhere else yet, i think were just gonna get some metal and weld it in place and hit it with some bondo
