cowl removal?

[omega_rugal]

is posible to unweld the cowl without having to dissasemble the entire front? someone made a hole on it and i have to replace it 

 

 

[Pete M]

wouldn't it be easier to patch it?  where exactly is the hole?

[omega_rugal]

it is a big hole...

[Pete M]

is it in that picture?  did they cut the factory hole larger to make it easier to swap out the wiper motor?

someone made another hole on the other side... patching it may be as much work as replacing the entire thing

Does the photo you supplied show this "other hole", because I don't see anything that looks very large and needing to be plugged.

Ahhhh.....OK.   So can you send us a pic of your cowl and the hole that needs plugging?    WIth more details, I might be able to suggest a solution other than welding.

the truck is on sale, i´ll try to contact the guy again, i don't know why is that hole there, perhaps to get rid of a rusty part but i don't want to risk buying if it can't be fixed, and if it was because of rust i should probably let it pass...
