Thanks

This forum wont allow posts to be edited - I've just found pictures of the hinges before being welded onto the new A pillar - so I'll just add them here -

Drivers Side A Pillar repair Cont -

All three panels in their correct positions.



The splash guard is also fitted.

[perry oaks]

Due to previous accident the original A pillar was not quite square.

This was highlighted by the jig.

Not only were the door hinges in the wrong place but the gap between the jig and the top and bottom hinges were different.

Test Fitting the Doors

As both a-pillars have been repaired, the hinges will have moved, so before going any further best make sure the doors sit/close properly.

Drivers Door





Passenger Door

[perry oaks]

The replacement rear tubs have arrived so along with the replacement dash and rear shelf are off for sand blasting before fitting.

Inside view of the doors

[perry oaks]

The Dash, axel, rear panel and tubs are back from sandblasting

[perry oaks]

The media blasting has shown up a few problems with the rear panel and tubs which will need sorting.





The water gully behind the grills in the rear flitch plate also needs work.

[perry oaks]

The replacement tubs although in really good condition need some work

[perry oaks]

Meanwhile work has continued on the front - drivers side inner wing replaced



Just passenger side inner wing to fit then the rest of the front will be fitted.

Anybody know what these holes in the rear parcel shelf are for -



I thought the middle hole was for a single speaker?

[rwdrs]

Yeah, the round one is for the sub and the oblong ones for the flat diaphragm speakers

Yeah, the round hole is for a single speaker AFAIK.
