I was wondering if any of you have had some body repair of blemishes and could relay a general price to me about them.

I have a little rust starting on the rear wheel wells, part of the tailgate, and a little on the door. What should I expect to pay to get these blemishes repaired, and how much time without my truck?

 

If the blemishes look like they are little bumps of rust, the only way to really correct it is to cut the sheet metal out around the infected area and weld in a clean piece of metal. You can get the pieces from JC Whitney that are already bent correctly to replace the panel that you need to cut out. Then, you're probably looking at painting the whole vehicle??? Hard to estimate the cost or time.

 

What about having it professionally done, a body shop, what am I looking at?
