The above is definately a good demonstration(sp)? of my delegation skills.

yesterday started sh!te after getting stuck on the driveway in the golf and nearly putting hole in the sill as it fell off the widomaker coming down. Managed to get a new rear quarter tacked in though which is cool.
replacement panel

trimmed to fit

this much to come out

Boom!


Offending get stuck car

and in

Ideally you should trim the panel not the car. But it looks like the car has rusted that high anyway. Also looks as if the inside panel is rusted too. You should have treated that before welding in the new panel. Its harder to do when everything is closed up.

AFAIK it's only being made solid to aid in then cutting it up for a roof chop and a body drop. Once that's done final rust removal will take place.

Looks sweet.. theres a hell of a lot of new panels going in lol

[archie837]

Yep. This ain't no normal Resto lol. Not treating the rust inside as that panel will be getting trimmed back and having a rolled piece of metal put in, instead of a normal firewall.

Then yeah the body's being channelled so more cutting of stuff out.

Need to do the other side and the repair piece will get trimmed as it's easier to put in a square piece than a triangle piece.
