Yeah Tony that was another of my thoughts at the time. I couldn't turn it down at £250 plus it came with it's type 9 box so hopefully it will remain good on strip down

floor totally finished today including fitting seat boxes. I was a bit strapped for cash after buying the pinto so i had to make my own seat boxes rather than get some off escort tec. Considering the only took a couple of hours to make i was very happy with how they turned out. This pic was the best of the origionals
I managed to drill off the captive nut part from the origional seat boxes and spot weld it onto my homemade ones as seen in the next pic with the poorest of the origionals for comparrison.
And a pic of them fitted
Also spent a bit of time cleaning up the bulkhead panel i got off tonyrs2 to sort my gearbox tunnel out along with one of the donor rear tubs as they are next on the list and hopefully will get them in the shot blaster over the weekend prior to fitting.

been meaning to upload these for days so here ya go. drivers side half tub removed ready for donor 4 door tub. Had to make a couple of repairs to the bootfloor as it was a tad crusty where the tub meets it in a couple of places then gave it a coat of zinc primer
new tub cleaned up ready to trial fit
tub clamped into position
and a pic from the inside
passenger side one all cleaned up now ready to go in but still need to remove the old half of origional tub. Hopefully welded into place soon but need rear arches off x pressed to check fit before the final welds. Think they will be fine tho and hopefully wont have to add a piece into quarter as the arches are slightly more generous than spurious ones.
