1st time owner of a 1986 argo 6x6 needing some help with body repair. I believe that mine is HDPE polyethylene because cleaning the shell with acetone does not affect the body shell.

Basically, I've got some left over bolt holes that need to be filled as well as a 4" circle that needs to be filled from the prior owner's homebuilt rollcage. The rollcage is damaged beyond repair and was a poor design.

What I "think" that I need are 2 items. I need a flat section that I can cut to fit the hole and then plastic weld. Also, I need some HDPE sticks for welding. I would prefer that both the sticks and the repair piece be green to match my argo shell.

Is there anywhere where I can purchase both of these materials?

maybe you can cut out some mat from under your seat to weld into the holes
