      Hi Andy,
      I'm welding in the exact same area as you at the moment . Drivers rear arch , wheel house and tank well. Do Hadrian do the inner tank well repair panel or is it expressed steel again? My Hadrian supplier over here said they weren't available???
      What are the two little tabs on the inner wheel house for, either side of the bump stop? mine have desceased with rot so will have to fabricate them.

      Cheers
      Robert

      • Hi Robert. The little tabs are to just location tabs ( i think) But the other side is bent over, onto the inner wheel arch ...Got my inner tank off ebay, thick metal and is a good fit. Just a little bit of bending...50% of the inner tank welded in now..It was the fastest panel fitted. Just hope the a post goes that fast.. Have you got any pictures..

          • Hi Andy, I have just looked at this thread now and I feel very humble when I look at the amount of work you are doing on this car. I see you have a nice collection of parts to go on which will make it a great car when you have finished.

            Keep the excellent work going, I'm enjoying this thread.

            Tim.

                    • Its that time again, More pictures... The first couple are of the petrol tankwell that is now finished.





                      This is of the back panel, Needs welding. Now thats a surprize.....



                      now just a couple of the under side.





                      and the last one. some of the new parts. The trouble is there are boxs everywere with parts in, garage, kitchen, bedroom, in my van. The problem is every time the wife opens a drawer, cupboard, more boxes full out..then its how much is this shed costing.. she said to the lad last week, given the chance she would sell it for a tenner..my lad said i will give you a tenner, its worth loads..not bad he's ten years old.........told her, had the car longer than her so its not the car that would be going....tea times are fun at the moment



                      Thats it for now folks. Back panel and then onto the a post, kick panel on the drivers side....how many months...cant wait for the lakes, that will give me some more drive....

                        • Hi Andy,

                          It's been a while..........looks like things have moved on a huge amount with your RS.

                          Looks like we're in the same boat - Lakes 2010 for me as well .

                            • Just a couple more. The rear panel, Before and after shots.





                              Then the rear wheel arch. Still need a bit more work. The rear chassis as been sorted so have the extra gearbox holes. Some work to do on the lower bulk head and then a post. The car will be under sealed in 4 weeks....with a bit of luck........
