markc

lil update after pissing around finally got 1 more done

untill next week

The inner sill/floor pan from last time


drivers side outer seat mount


both seat mounts double welded and reinforced using metal that it 5 times thinker so it shouldnt flex as much

markc

lil update

decided to see wat excatly needed doing on 1 of the inner rear arches
so finaly after a long day its almost ready for the new panel, just a lil tidying up and itll be ready to put in

the inner arch was fooked to say the least from well everywhere lol and a few dodgy patches from previous mechanics didnt help so rather than piss about i choped it all out and make it look decent. Amasingly the outer arch is fine just a lil more surface rust to get rid of and itll be good as new 8)





sealed the filler neck panel aswel as they are a fooker for starting rot

hopefully more next week

todays update

decided to get the inside holeless again so is now all welded up (3 in total)
-drivers side front floor pan where it joins the sill (because of some twat lifting the car up on it) all straightened and welded up
-drivers side rear floor pan where it joins the sill needed replacings
-and a lil patch on the end needed doing aswell

just needs seam sealing now and the inside will be complete




untill next week hopefully
