We just had a night where we cut the shit out, front panel and wigs are great so I decided to keep them in , I bought a new front pane and x member, but we only fitted from the headlights down . I’ll show a pic of that job later

We cut about an inch off the floor and got a folded length of steel right angle the full length to make a new floor outer edge, recommended for spot welding outer sill back on

This is the inner sill being tried in , the new floor edge is fitted , see how the new inner sill sits on it , when the outer sill goes on the two lips are clamped and spot welded, like factory. It’s the only way to do sills, any metal shop will fold two lengths for a few quid

This job is so time consuming but satisfying too when you see the spotless section and then lash acid primer on and you know that’s it . Future proof
