Monday
Fix that sill!
Jack up the car to make it easier to weld. higher the better.
Note the whole rear suspension is an ARB, think i could make it stiffer. then i can shorten the springs even more with out the fear of springs unseating during hard cornering.
Rusty!
Hole-ly!
Too small to be a Dave Roberts ‘exploratory incision’ but then again i don’t have a shitacular ford.
Don’t have any krust or weld though primer so..
Out with the hammerite, which is buried in the back right by that bulmers bottle..
Better.
While waiting for that to dry abit i pulled out my front sill lip(?)
afterwards gave it a coat of hammerite too.
Then it rained.. again.. every time i weld……
Didn’t do a great job of the patch plate.
Welding wasn’t too hard (except for the upside down bit)
Stop to rescue some seca bits for my mom, all the back yard ‘spares pile’ is gone
Crap photo of some crap welding but it is solid, will make a better patch for the other side.
rear arch is a bit shit, but at least i have some options when it come to fixing that (offroad archs or widebody? hmmm)
