I could rivet sheet metal on the exterior to cover the hole, and silicone to make complete seal (I dont care if it looks "rough", as long as it functions) - my concern is structurally if the car is okay, as metal on the chassis is missing (not just the exterior sheet metal) for example if that bracket I circled in this image ( imgur.com/a/FGkgT0V ) is removed, will the car fall apart? Mind you - these pics are prior to removing more rust, the video shows after I removed a lot of the rust. I lack experience in this area. The opposite side of the car is intact and doesnt have a gaping hole like this.
From other forums people are saying the car is scrap. I dont have a welder, and im sure the cost to hire a shop to fix the structural part would exceed what I paid for the car ($2k) so I may just get a new car. I was browsing for a 1992 Honda Civic CX just like what aerocivic had but havent had much luck
