Awesome work, I like it. Your in SA? hopefully we run into you at a swapmeet one of these days.

The I got one of those Saws in a Ryobi cordless set, it's made the goat's list of favorite things. Highly recomended.

G'udday ambientgoat.
Yep, from S.A. Would be keen to check out a swapmeet. Do I keep an eye out under the meets & runs section of the website for the next one?

You should have gone to Bunnings and bought a $75 sabre saw and a dozen metal cutting blades!

Good idea. I had thought of a cordless jig saw but would have been forever snapping blades on the various structural elements below the outer skin. A sabre saw would have been a much better option, I’ll invest in one if I have to re-visit the yard.

Time for a quick update.

Fitted up the new passenger floor replacement panel. Glad I took the time to get the cut right, the replacement panel fits snug with minimal gap between the old and new.
My father fired up the oxy torch for the welding, around an hour later the floor is in.

In order to limit the heat distortion we welded small sections at a time. Eventually the entire floor panel has been joined by a continuous fusion weld throughout. Time to start work on replacing the inner sill.

Eddo I have just spent half an hour looking for our thread. The second stage is under blackouts if you do a search but I can't remember what the beginning is called I will do more research next week for you.

Thanks Jennie, just had a look.
Wow, your car is immaculate, no wonder you enjoy driving it. Those side boxes in the interior are a nice touch.

Looks like the Ethels car park in the before shot.
