Some more progress. Offside sill ready to face the road again.
Work started on the nearside rear wheelarch/sill section.
The welding version of The Stig.
Just to give a nice sense of balance to the sill rot, The Bruiser also allowed the boot lock/bottom lip area to corrode away too which I haven't seen before. :shock:
Not to mention that handy jacking block. This will be plated over & welded to the towbar section as I'll never take it off. Although I'm not having the bumper on I'll fit the irons & other towbar sections as rear protection & parking sensor. :wink:
With the boot my Brother decided the easiest thing to do was cut the whole lot away & fabricate a new one.
It may be welded in tomorrow, possibly Monday as the need to earn a bit of money over the weekend is getting in the way for both of us.
