That repair is definitely doable though. If you haven't done sheet metal before it will take a while to learn how to do it. MP&C has a lot of very good threads on metal shaping. Buy a small welder and a shrinker and stretcher from Harbor Freight and start playing around.
Yeah, I can do patches in sheetmetal but, the window frame takes a lot more work and you can only buy pre-fabed sections for the bottom of the frame. I am scared to death to deal with it.
