Re: Stu
Next job was to close the gap and join the body to the new wheelarch. Not straight forward due to the curves involved. Decided on 2mm steel for this. Bit overkill but it needs using up. Going to do it in two pieces. Got one of the curves cut and it fits well. Need to cut the top to follow the body. ...

Re: Stu
I replaced the sills at both sides 9 years ago. The originals were only made of 1mm steel and rusted from the inside out (as they all do). Initially my hand was forced as somebody ran into the side of me when they tried to overtake and I was turning right. All their fault and they owned up eventuall...

All this work I've done so far is largely unseen as it's either underneath or covered by something else. This is the only bit you will see (without the blocks and with the wheel back on).

Underbody rust all wire brushed and treated, fuel tank off and being renovated . All anti roll bars and panhard bar off ready for new poly bushes, old shock absorbers off ready ...

Re: Stu
Project get another 26 years out of this Daihatsu Fourtrak continues. It's essential to have some metal working skills with these old girls . I could have patched up the rear wheelarches to pass a few mot's but decided to go for something longer lasting - rip them out and start again. No repair pane...

Re: Bloody weather
It's not as windy as I thought it was going to be (yet). I put a large paving slab on the trampoline earlier so it doesn't move house
