I'm hoping so, I am actually scared to Start cutting it all back in case the waxoyl is hiding even more horrors. I'm still fascinated that its only the drivers side.

I Drove it round to a friends house to show him and did this for a laugh....

You can fix everything with Duck tape right?

I may have gone abit nuts that day.

You can buy repair panels for both sections on eBay for reasonable money

Trying to decide which Sill kit I should get.

I could get a full outer sill from MR-Ben that would mean I would need to fab up the inner stuff myself.

Image

or I could get the outer and inner patch panel. This would give me the inner end too. I will still need to fab up some other bits from plate as the rust will need cut out inside too no doubt.

Image

I guess I will need to wait until I start cutting it up. I need to sell another car first to give me garage space to continue ](*,) That was the plan anyway but now its more pressing as I want to crack on with the welding!
