so chassis leg ticked off the list moved onto the sill on the same side, with being able to get hold of sills quite easily and being another spot prone to rust had decided ages ago I was going to replace them, plus somebody had already done a bit of welding to them which was visable without the bodykit which was bad enough anyway as you can see from this picture



The new sill was placed on and marked out




This was then cut out all the way along so the full piece could be used



after getting the sill off became obvious the car had some work to the floor in the past, the sill was floating in mid air and the lip of which we needed to weld the replacement sill to was none existent



a piece of angle inch x inch angle was bought from auto crash parts and welded into place



after this strips from another length where cut and welded on to reattach the inner sill to the car body



Before refitting the outer sill the inner sills were wire brushed down and given a coat of POR-15 rust preventative paint to help protect them in the future




Once dry the sill was put into position and carfully welded into place to avoid distorting the rear quarter panel




the sill now on finishing jobs where to grind the weld flat and cut the plate at the back to match the size of the sill



and looking underneath was slowly starting to make headway at last on the car




Next up was taking the wooden supports out and flipping the car around the other way to repeat the work on opposite side
