been a while since i last posted, been working on the car and its slowly getting done, i started the year by removing the old drivers sill to find the inner sill rottern, that was repaired and a whole new sill was fitted, the drivers floor was next on the list, rottern and full of holes it had to go. Whole new floor pan was fitted and here is the finished result, just got the rear floor to fix up as needs resealing and a few holes welded nothing major which is good!

My new wings turned up this week too! more pics of progress soon!

Yeah you'll need that Daz, eBay would be the best bet tho i'd guess..... rare thing now! With the holder tho, you'll also get 4 handy cassette storage spaces Wink

Feb 6th 2011

This weekend i made a start on the n/s sill. it didnt look too bad at first but after inspection with the wire wheel and removing a tub of filler i was left with a shit sill . it had been plated and bodged up at some point. after cutting it out i found the inner sill wasnt in the best shape too. Pics below are of the sill before and after cutting. im also working on repairing the inside floor/bulkhead area atm too so theres a few pics of that  with this update. Got a coat of paint on the o/s inner wheel arch too.
