And up next some images what happened this summer:
I welded passengers side skirt, and the floor.
Also drivers side was fixed.
I took some work to get all the rusted metal away, from transmission tunnel.
I fixed both sheets of metal seperately.
Right side rear wheel arch fixed, looks a bit mesy in this point...
To get more space, I did few jobs while welding:
So rear beam, gearbox and propshaft had to go.
Few years ago I bought manual called "How to prepare Sierra for motorsport", and it inspired me to one modification that is made to Group A Sierras.
I made re-inforce joints at rear to made body stiffer, allthough there are many other places left to re-inforce, but all finish them later...
Last week I sparyed epoxy primer layer on to all repaired/welded/grinded places in bodyshell. Some pictures below:
Right now I would say 70% of the cars body has been fixed, there is still some work in boot floor and in left side front fender. And ofcourse some body stiffening.
