All out....

It was a lot more rusty than i expected... mainly being held together by sealant ...

The rear deck all cleaned up and bolted down on the chassis....

New side panels made to drop down from the rear deck back onto the sill panel, the new floors lined up and bolted up then welded into place. Notching around the B post seemed a slow process i did not want to cut out to much in one go...

I want it to look as factory as possible..

The boot floor will need some work to get right and will have to be welded to the rear panel 8cm higher ... at least the welding marks can be hidden behind the number plate and back lights

Test fitting the rear bench... No room for tall people with the roof up...

So there it is so far...the rear arms are hard up against the inner wings at the back so they will need cutting back, the rear inner wings may need to be moved if i wish to keep the larger rear tyres not sure yet it may end up on a different set of wheels too....


But i am happy with the progress made...in fact i have loved every minute .

Oh yes thank you Wiltz... the front panel is perfect.
