I know that bit  - I'm keen to know what happens after you've stripped out the interior (other than you'll go faster..)

Well here we go again. Really should have replaced the sill the first time around!

[Leslie green 166]

Yes Paul if you need a sill repair you usually are better to whack the whole sill on ,rather than just a patch repair  if only to make sure there is no further nastiness hiding in there . That's surprisingly crusty at the back !

Yeah horrible isnt it. It lives outside all year and the drivers side wasnt touched 7, 8? Years ago. Oh well! 

 

Everything is fixable.

After a lot of delay, bad cut out, now to be blasted, new metal put in then on to paint #atsomepoint.

You are well into it this time Paul , what is the other side like cant be much better ?

[Telf 238 2 Cars]

Well I did the other side when it was built before so it's getting left alone!

Its finally done!

 

Collect next week then likely  I will sell it. Dreading getting rid, I dont really know what its worth. 

[Leslie green 166]

Prices have dropped so no point selling it bud especially when its just fixed

I know mate a bill coming in for mine some time  this week , bodywork ain't cheap ! Makes even more sense to keep it now get your monies worth as you will only buy some other tat which will cost a fortune to fix ..lol
