E30 in need of body repair, advice needed please

[DrGonzoPOW]

Hi, just bought an E30 and all was well until i started poking around underneath. Turns out a load of rot had been covered up by a new paintjob so im more than miffed off at the moment.
So....looking like im going to have to weld a new section into the drivers footwell, put a new wing on it, and the bit im going to struggle with is that is needs a new offside sill putting on.

Does anyone please have any advice and pictures i can look at to get an idea of what i need to do ? I have a little workshop that i can use to weld it up but my skills probably dont stretch as far as replacing a sill. Any help please!!!
