    Thanks 10170[/ATTACH] photo 3-20.JPG for messages, have taken the belly pans and belly floors off to reveal the rust on the sills, having cut out the 3 cills on the drivers side finally managed to get the inner and middle sill in place.

    The rust has started to work its way up the side panel so cut this out ready for a big outer sill and side. The rear corners have been bodged by PO so will be cutting these out next as well
