hi have just removed my windscreen and found that my scuttles and upper dash rail are rusted through, i have found detailed instructions for replacing the scuttles but can not find anything for the dash rail?
Can someone please point me in the right direction as im sure there is instructions somewhere on here?
Many thanks
Neil

i welded a bar in about 2 or 3 inches under the dash rail to brace it, marked up and measured everything then cut the old one out, clean up the surrounding areas and weld it in. i did do the flitch panels first so i had good metal to weld to.
