    After 8 years plus off road I am finally getting somewhere on my 1974 Westie .I have no excuses being a full time mechanic with 28 years experience and full use of the workshop .I am now in the process of replacing the full sides and complete rear corners etc etc and cannot believe just how involved it is ! i have spent days drilling out spot welds and grinding off panels and feel I am getting no-where .I thought replacing the front arches was long winded but this is a completely different ballgame .I will add some pictures as I go along to hopefully get some encouragement and if anyone is considering replacing the same panels please feel free to drop in for some advice. 2015-04-11 14.06.57.jpg
