    body is really straight never been in a knock and all original panels sill and wheel arch on os is rotten, ns is mint. it drove really well felt tight and gearbox is smooth, i found evidence of new gearbox fitted by main dealer at 76k its on 98k now and all the mots and history adds up.
    the only thing that didnt work was the rev counter but thats sorted now.
    So first job the ROT, im using a aftermarket sill and wheel arch repair panel, i priced up a new quarter panel and sill from reno but the only one that was avilble was a complete side at nearly £1000
    after cutting off the sill the inner lip and floor lip was shot so that has to be made.
    Im going to be repainting everything apart from under the bonnet, the more i look at the running gear and subframe makes me want to replace it all but i haven't a open cheque book on this car, so i would love to see what others have done to tidy up underneath



    my pointy head panel beater






















    that's it so far i'm ordering a new door this week ready for lining up the sill
    Love the work.
    Quick question about the sill, from the pictures your fabricator has ran a standard sill. Has that been taken all the way to the rear or has he modified for the wider rear arch. On mine I've modified to fit the wider arch.

    Black waxoyl covers everything stops rust progressing and look great
    Dinitrol for the sill its lighter and can be injected between the inner and outer sills
