getting some jobs done
interior is all out showing 2 bits needing weld, on inner sills, never would have failed an mot on, its well hidden, but ill sort it, neither touch the outer sills and the seat mount has a snapped bolt so will sort that out old looms half out floors are very clean too much rain to get much more done |
im loving the welding, ok so its not new floors and inners but were not talkin classic car here so its being kept sensible
nothing the mot man would have noticed as it didnt show from the underside but i like welding so found as much as i could :top: the seat mount was a bitch as it had been welded from the underside before but was well knackered above and had a sheared bolt but i cut the same parts from the rs im breaking, drilled the spots so i only welded in the reataining/strenthening section, could put some really fat people in the drivers seat now :top: https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...erturbo001.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...erturbo002.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...erturbo003.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...erturbo004.jpg just the rear sills next, they could scrape an mot but ill just sort it everywherre else is mint, rear chassis rails are perfect :cool: |
still cracking on, its got its new loom, 88 spec interior, some painted up and shiney bits, needs a release bearing and the top ends a bit rattley so may sell it as a going concern as i havent time to do much else :(
ahh well see how it goes on pistonheads if it stays ill stuff my cammed up spare engine in for a quick fix and sort a cam kit on this engine at some point its all on teh key and built up now tho :cool: https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...o/Image021.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...o/Image022.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...o/Image023.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...o/Image024.jpg https://i61.photobucket.com/albums/h...o/Image025.jpg |
