Time for some panel removal so off with his front end

and the scuttle taken off to see all of this

Not bad for the original scuttle i have to say.

Then onto the bulkhead especially under the hinge mounts

The flitch bottoms under the scab patches

Now onto the bulkhead hinge mounts

Old metal cut out and new metal tacked in place

Metal in and bracket pinned in place waiting to be plug welded

Day three

 

L/h side welded in

Both mounts are in but no pictures

then onto the l/h shock mount. It looked really good so i thought a clean up would be all it needed but no the meatl was still pitted

IMG_1946_zpscc8bdf96.jpg

cutout and behind was not that bad

IMG_1947_zps43093a69.jpg

just surface rust and cleaned up very nicely and welded up well

Looks like you're using a light sabre on the 12th pic ( sorry but I had to say it )
