Another day off work to try and get things done. The aim was to get the second sill done. This started with the task of cutting the old one out and grinding what we couldn't cut out away. Here's Ross ready for some grinder action, even sporting my new welding gaunlets for extra protection.
A lot of grinding went on. A lot of old sill needed to be shown the exit.
The bottom of the rear pillar has rusted away and needed to be replaced. Ross set about creating a replacement piece which was shaped in the same way as the pillar... not an easy task. Here's it going in...
and the excellent end result...
After a lot of positioning, we put the old doors ontop to test out the location. Here's a pic of the new sill clamped in with the doors resting on top.
We ran out of time so didn't get the sill welded in unfortunately. Next time it should just be a case of a few more minor adjustments and we can get it done, the car back upright and then we're getting there.
