I have had the battery box prior acid leak,,, battery replaced box cleaned
and repaired... now large hole and lack of structure leaking water when it
rains into the passenger compartment. Body shop cannot find used parts or
parts to order so says it will be extremely expensive to fabricate. Already
spent $350 to patch that did not work,,, and they considered that cheap so
not yet sure what extremely expense would be. I am in Raleigh NC. Anyone
either know a good source of parts or about fabrication options?

Have you considered fiberglass?
It is pretty easy to fill a hole (non structural) in a spot that
does not show, and fix a leak.

they tried poxy type compound i assume similar to fibreglass, twice,,, not
sure if it breaks with driving and torque or they are not doing large enough
area thanks for the thought...maybe i should try a boat place
