    Hi there,
    Hopefully the measurements that I took before I started ripping my car to pieces will help you. The measurements below were taken from the NS sill, but you can just reverse for the OS. The measurements were taken from an original unmodified sill.

    The image below shows where I took the measuremets from.

    The following are the actual measurements

    These should be useful to you as they show the increments of the rear sill flare

    That's a really big help as there has been a bit of a bodge and needed to get the right flare did you use the
    standard sills and work on them I'm also after this measurement from the shock bolt to the detail line at the top of the sill cheers

    I'll have a look tonight for you and report back.
    I used a brand new Genuine Williams OS rear 1/4 (very lucky to get hold of)
    I Repaired the NS sill which needed a minimal repair so was able to keep the flair detail no problem.

    Hello All 3's rust, more than others I hear. Nothing that cannot be sorted though, and they are a very rare breed of Williams

    Although the site has gotten quieter over the years, there is a vast array of info here still specifically for the Williams.

    My car is so non-standard now that I use many forums to get info, personally. But here is where you need to start

    As for the issue and info you need, I would look at getting hold of a rear quarter from a scrapper 16v as OEM ones are now completely sold out. I think I had the last one from France. You can use the standard sills and modify them to fit, the part is cheap.

    A good bodyshop with experience can so them properly.

    HI,

    The williams /16v sills are the same length. Just the rear part flairs out slightly I think

    I have checked the measurement that you were after, although my car does not currently have rear shocks installed so I have measured from the bodywork just below the bolt to the outer point that you requested and its 27cm.

    The poverty spec pattern sills are longer than the Williams/16v ones so they will need to be shortened and as previously detailed the Williams ones are deeper and flare out at the back, so need quite a bit of modification work to make them match - good luck with the project.
