I've only got one, if you've got some bring them over :)

What are your favourite biscuits mate? :)

1) Rebuild the floor
2) Weld on the seatbelt anchor plate
3) Rebuild end of the inner arch
4) Mount up subframe with the heel board end attached
5) Line up and weld the heel board end
6) & then sort the rear quarter

That's my plan of action ^

Hopefully we will work our way down that list fairly quick, maybe the first few numbers.

:)

Woah long time.. I've been so busy at Uni >_< came home last night as it's my Mums birthday today but I've managed to get a good 4-5 hours in the garage.

& apologies for the photo quality.. didn't bring my camera home.

W&P arches, scroll up to see how they will look :dontgetit:

Bit more of the floor chopped out.

Posted Image

Posted Image

Marking up and taking my time over cutting the floor down to size.

Posted Image

And clamped in place! needs a bit more fettling but I'm happy with that.

Only took me about 4 hours :( but I was taking my time and the good method of measuring twice and cutting once.

Posted Image

Gaps are looking acceptable.




So next step is welding it in place.. hopefully I'll have the aid of Camp Freddy :P

Unsure when I'm next home.. depends completely on my work load at Uni, it's been heavy lately :lol:
