Nice work, is that the heritage door step that has the a-post attached to it? If so any they any good looking at getting some for our resto and heard the pattern ones aren't the best...

 

Yes, unfortunately that's the only heritage option for a door step. The pattern ones are terrible.

They are perfect if your A post is a bit rotten too.

Nice work there, I was wondering if you would be doing the full rear quarter or not as the rest of it looked good. How did that little repair panel fit? it looks to have gone in well...

Yes decided to go with just the repair section as the rest of it is very good and obviously a big price difference. M-machine section and fitted very well indeed.

Great thanks, it does look to have fitted very well but wasnt sure if that was your handy work or a good panel, i am in the same boat the bottom of quarters have gone but tops as nice. So might go the same route..

Solid build for a daily drive was the brief! :-)

It’s been a pleasure dealing with Josh, and I have been very impressed with his work and updates as the project progresses for me.
