Made some good progress today on the nearside inner wing, here's how it started out!
Made up and welded in a new lip for the wing to be welded to.
Then welded up the corner of the front panel where it meets the wing.
Started on the rotten A pillar then which had been repaired before and by the look of the welding i reckon it was Stevie Wonder that did it !!!!
Made up a nice new patch to strengthen the door hinge mounting on the A pillar.
Then welded it in place and tidied up the surrounding area including welding a repair patch onto the end of the scuttle panel that had previously been repaired with filler!!
And thats the nearside inner wing all nice and strong now and ready for some seam sealer and the can weld the new wing back on.
Inner wing on the driver side is solid so wont need any welding i dont think so next thing to do i reckon is start on the rear arches and sills and get them all nice and neatly repaired.
Am now thinking about changing the colour to possibly Imperial Blue and fitting the kit from a S1 Turbo along with the interior and wheels and reckon it should look rather
done this way !
