Hi, well been cracking on today with a few more jobs. Need to get the inner in so I prepared the chassis leg as holes needed welding up due to removing the old one.







Welds were ground back and some Kurust applied to protect the metal as the inner wing leg slips over the top. Whilst the metal was curing, i moved to the passenger floor well, to cut out some areas I wasn't happy with. This area was directly above the chassis leg as you can see.



Next a patch was made with holes so I could plug weld ontop of the chassis prior to welding fully up.



Ground back.



Kurust applied to protect the metal



Also cut this out and replaced.



All this area now prepped for the seat cross member to go back in. Thats the next job, then the biggy which i'm dreading the inner wing, need to prob measure loads to get it hopefully right, any advice, tips fitting this will be gladly received .

Well thats all for now friends, beer time

Hi All,

With the help of Mr Spence, we mocked up the inner wing, AGAIN (See last year's post lol)




Once the panels were lined up, self tappers were put in to hold in place, this is for fine adjustment when the measuring process begins.
clamps removed. Wings were dropped on just to get an idea.




Well, the next job i'm doing is welding in the seat cross member on the passenger side and that's all the work finished in that area. I will post the pics soon. After that I will start measuring up to finally weld in the inner, then front and slam panel to get the front end finished.

Cheers Daz
